Product Development Pathway
(5 R&D Concepts)
Continuous ribbon manufacturing approach for garnet oxide electrolyte films using char-free binder chemistry that enables flameless burnout during inert-atmosphere sintering at the throughput required for commercial cell supply.
Controlled surface porosity generation on sintered garnet electrolyte films through selective chemical treatment, creating a structural template that accepts subsequent anode interface treatments for improved solid-solid contact. Further concepts address lithium metal dendrite suppression at the anode contact, mechanical compliance accommodating volume changes during cycling, and cathode-side interfacial resistance reduction with high-temperature stability.
Potential Synergies to Deliver Well-Rounded Cells for Application
Continuous manufacturing backbone paired with modular interface concept subsets – enabling a single oxide film platform to address energy-density, power, or cycling-robustness priorities through different combinations of interface treatments.
