Prof. Ceder and his students present their work at the MRS Spring 2022 in Hawaii!

Prof. Ceder and his students present their work on various topics, including the design of lithium-ion conductors for solid-state batteries, new Ca-ion conductors for solid-state batteries, and computational and machine learning approaches for analyzing disordered rocksalt cathode materials, and more.

Day 1:

Peichen Zhong explaining the motivation for investigating disordered rock-salt cathodes, part of his presentation in the Data Science symposium on computational and machine learning approaches for understanding disordered rock-salt materials.

 

Day 2:

Zijian Cai at his poster, which won Best Poster Award in the section EN05: Emerging Materials for Electrochemical Energy Storage Devices, on realizing continuous disorder between spinel disordered rock-salt cathodes.

 

Day 3:

Tanjin He presenting his work on machine learning the similarity of materials from scientific literature to recommend synthesis methods for inorganic compounds in the Data Science symposium.

 

Day 4:

Nathan Szymanski presenting his work in the Data Science symposium on data-driven decision making for automating materials synthesis to recommend synthesis temperatures and precursors for YBCO.

 

Kyujung Jun presenting his work on identifying high Li-conductivity materials with corner-sharing frameworks to find fast oxide lithium-ion conductors in the Energy and Sustainability symposium.

 

Tina Chen explaining her work on understanding the effects of disorder on the thermodynamics and voltage profile of LiMn2O4 spinel in a poster session for the Energy and Sustainability symposium.

 

Day 5:

Yingzhi Sun describing his work to the audience of the Energy and Sustainability symposium on a novel superionic conductor obtained by pseudo-halogen substitution in an argyrodite and the mechanisms behind its superionic properties.

 

Yu Chen introducing her discovery of a new solid-state calcium-ion conductor and its unique “vacancy-adjacent” migration mechanism to the Energy and Sustainability symposium in the solid-state batteries section.

 

The Ceder and Persson group at the Plumeria Beach House for a joint dinner.

 

Prof. Ceder toasting to the Ceder and Persson groups on the great scientific discussion that has come from the MRS Spring 2022 meeting.

 

Day 6:

Zheren Wang motivates the need for a codified dataset of synthesis recipes in his talk on a codified dataset of solution-baed inorganic materials synthesis recipes for data-driven synthesis in the Data Science symposium.

 

Kevin Cruse explains his work on using data from text-mined materials synthesis conditions to create visualizations and machine-learned representations to help inform and guide experimental syntheses in the Data Science symposium.
