Dear all,
The Department of Physics, faculty of Science invites you to the following Colloquium:
Title: Ceramic Electrolytes for Next Generations Batteries
Speaker: Syed Bahari Ramadzan Bin Syed Adnan (Physics Department, Faculty of Science, Universiti Malaya)
Date: Friday September 30th 2022, 3:00 pm
Location: BSFA, Department of Physics
Abstract:
Ceramic electrolytes are expected to be a fundamental solution for the safety issue of ion batteries arising from combustible organic electrolytes. Many researchers aim at the development of highly ion-conductive oxide solid electrolytes such as LISICON-type, NASICON-type, perovskite-type, and garnet-type structures. These types of solid electrolytes have various advantages such as simple design, natural seal, resistance to shock and vibration, resistance to pressure, the absence of leakage, long lifetime, and a high degree of reliability. This sharing session will cover the past and current speaker research which focuses on LISICON and NASICON type ceramic electrolytes. It covers the partial substitution method in the ceramic compound in order to create point defects such as Schottky and Frenkel defects. This type of defect will produce a vacant site or interstitial ion and result in the optimization of ion mobility and eventually will increase the total ionic conductivity.
About the Speaker:
Dr. Syed Bahari Ramadzan Bin Syed Adnan is currently a senior lecturer and a new member in the Physics Department, Faculty of Science. He completed his Ph.D. from the University of Malaya in the material science field. His Ph.D. work is on the Lithium Superionic Conductor (LISICON) structured solid electrolytes for potential use in Lithium Batteries. He expanded his research work to the hybrid compound electrolytes using natural clay, polymer, and ionic liquid and discovered potential used in Lithium, Sodium, and Magnesium batteries. He published a lot of papers in high-impact journals and proceedings and also filed a research patent titled " A method for synthesizing nano ionic sodium zinc silicate" using halloysite nano-clay in 2020.
