This book combines two areas of intense interest: nanotechnology, and energy conversion and storage devices. In particular, Li-ion batteries have enjoyed conspicuous success in many consumer electronic devices and their projected use in vehicles that will revolutionize the way we travel in the near future. For many applications, Li-ion batteries are the battery of choice. This book consolidates the scattered developments in all areas of research related to nanotechnology and lithium ion batteries.
Nanotechnology and lithium-ion battery technology will both play a major role in helping the world solve its growing energy and environmental challenges. Nanotechnology for Lithium-Ion Batteries explores where the two fields converge, with fresh insights into the complex relationship between these rapidly growing areas of research.
This book covers the basic concepts of nanotechnology, how they relate to lithium-ion batteries, and the effects of using nanomaterials to enhance battery performance. In addition to taking an in-depth look at the emerging research, this book will explore how new discoveries will impact existing and emerging markets, including those related to consumer electronics, automotive technology, and smart grid technology.
