Lab Overview: Ewha Women's University's Next Generation Battery Material Research Institute studies areas related to the development of new materials to improve the performance of the next generation secondary battery system and the analysis of crystal structure and electrochemical behavior. Research in this lab is mainly focused on the development of positive materials and solid ion conductors that play a crucial role in improving the performance of next-generation secondary batteries. To this end, we have differentiated know-how in developing new materials and all-solid-cell systems based on stratigraphic oxides, Redox-Active Macrocycles, Metal-Organic Framework, and Molecular Machines, and a variety of international joint research experiences.
