In collaboration with Professor Kaspar Lö昀昀el Further from FHNW, the researchers are also investi- information gating the bene昀椀ts of 3D copper as a promis- ing solution that could help to mitigate the Paul Scherrer formation of lithium dendrites on the anode, Institute PSI as these can have various negative e昀昀ects on https://www.psi.ch/en battery performance and safety. Finally, the FHNW School of researchers will develop a concept for pro- Engineering ducing these nanoscale functional layers on https://www.fhnw.ch/en/ 3D copper on an industrial scale. research-and-services/engi- neering Collaboration between: Oerlikon Metco Paul Scherrer Institute PSI // FHNW https://www.oerlikon.com/ School of Engineering // Oerlikon Metco metco/en/ AG (Wohlen, AG) The project team uses an all-solid-state cell for accurate and reliable electrochemical testing (top) and roadmaps the evolution of Li-ion battery chemistry, which can be used to boost energy density and improve safety. (Im- age: PSI) “The project potentially allows us to enter the value chain of Gen 3 and Gen 4 lithium-metal cell technology with a strong unique selling proposition.” Dr. Phani Kumar Yalamanchili, Oerlikon Metco AG Nano Fabrication Lab 昀氀yer The Nano Fabrication Lab (NF Lab) o昀昀ers numerous technolo- gies and methods to support researchers with the production of micro and nanofabricated components. We provide an overview of the NF Lab’s services in a short 昀氀yer. Nano Fabrication Lab flyer https://bit.ly/4dYGzln Annual Report 2023 In the Annual Report, we look back on the year 2023. In addition to short and concise summaries of highlights in di昀昀erent areas of the SNI, a scienti昀椀c supplement goes into greater depth and describes the results of all projects funded in 2023 over two pages per project.
