Dislocations dans les nanomatériaux carbonées en couches

Janvier 2024 – Juin 2027

Personnels IMN impliqués : Maxime Bayle (équipe PMN), Doctorant (arrivée en Septembre 2024)

 

Abstract: Layered dislocated materials are fundamentally different from their non-dislocated counterparts.

The aim of the project is to explore and extend dislocation theory for 2D layered materials, to understand dislocation core structures, migration and interaction with impurities such as water and cations like Li and Na. To explore the role of dislocations in intercalation, to guide the design of dislocations in graphite battery electrodes for high-speed metal intercalation and deintercalation.

The team leading this research project comprises three partners in Nantes, Bordeaux (ISM) and Lyon (LMI), as well as three foreign associates in the UK (Loughborough), Spain (Zaragoza) and Australia (Curtin).
