Upcoming Webinar and Training Session
At a time when lithium is becoming the 'new oil', the demand for next-generation battery materials, materials optimization, and materials processing understanding, are at an all time high. It is important to establish a broad range of battery materials, inclusive of lithium and beyond. This webinar will discuss some of the ways MedeA can be used to explore next-generation battery materials, and more specifically how MedeA can be used to accelerate the search for good multivalent ion battery materials.
Automated convergence testing
Intercalation site identification in the Chevrel phase Mo6S8
Electronic analysis of multivalent ion battery materials
Voltage comparison of multivalent ion batteries
Stable phase prediction as Li is increased in LixNiO2
Voltage prediction for LixNiO2
MedeA Training Session Li-Ion Batteries and Beyond
Following the webinar, Dr. Juran, together with the Materials Design Support Team, will lead a MedeA training session. This training is open to everyone. Learn to use the MedeA GUI, MedeA VASP GUI, Flowchart, and analysis tools to pioneer next-generation battery materials! Topics include:
Automated convergence testing
Automated intercalation site testing with VASP high-throughput
Electronic structure analysis
Voltage calculations
