Chemistry · featured academic

Professor Dame Clare Grey applies nuclear magnetic resonance and diffraction methods to battery materials. Her multi-institution study with colleagues at Manchester, Rutgers and Oxford revisited metal fluoride cathodes for lithium-ion batteries, showing that lithiation proceeds by diffusion controlled displacement rather than reconstructive phase transitions, guiding the design of higher capacity electrodes.

Zoe Kourtzi
