Precursor Selection and Oxidative Stabilization Parameters for Hard Carbon Synthesis
Controlled oxidative cross-linking of pitch precursors balances carbon yield and closed porosity to optimize hard carbon capacity and initial coulombic efficiency.
State of Charge Drift Mitigation in Commercial Energy Storage Packs Operating on Flat Voltage Plateaus
Mitigating state of charge drift on flat voltage plateaus combines shunt calibration, adaptive filtering, and periodic voltage knee recalibration.
Stress Coupled Phase Transformations and Energy Efficiency Losses in Silicon Anode Cells
Silicon anode cells suffer 10 to 25 percent energy efficiency losses from stress-coupled thermodynamic hysteresis unrecoverable by rate reduction.
Hard Carbon Anode Precursor Thermal Processing Fundamentals
Hard carbon performance depends on precursor crosslinking and thermal calcination profiles that balance interlayer spacing, closed porosity, and surface area.
Thermodynamic Phase Transitions and Voltage Hysteresis in Lithiated Silicon
Voltage hysteresis in lithiated silicon is a thermodynamic and stress-coupled phase phenomenon requiring strict cut-off limits to prevent crystallization.
