Cathode development provides the largest opportunity for improving energy density and lowering costs of advanced lithium-ion battery cells. Improvements in cathode technology need to be made to match the energy density of anodes and get the most energy storage out of the battery. With current cathodes typically accounting for over a third of total battery cost, it is important to achieve these goals with a special focus on supply chain concerns. This virtual meeting will focus on the improvements being made to current cathode technology. Coverage will include: Coverage will include: • NMC Cathodes • Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries • Class 1- Layered Oxide Cathodes • Improved Energy Density • Electronic Conductivity • Thermal Stability • Cycle Stability • Safety • Computational Studies • Ion Diffusion Mechanisms • Equilibrium Cell Voltage Studies • Cathode Surface Behavior
