Abstract

In this talk, Dr. Chuying Ouyang will focus on the development of battery materials using computational materials sciences (particularly density functional theory, DFT). Three areas will be discussed, as follows: 1) What is DFT and what can DFT do? 2) What can DFT do for battery materials? 3) What have already been done through DFT in battery materials development?

Biography

Dr. Prof. Chuying Ouyang has been working in computational study of the battery materials for 18 years. He is currently the executive deputy president of the 21-C LAB in CATL.
