Powering future on-board quantum technologies with high energy density solid-state batteries (Q-Batt)

This project is working to expand on previous partnership between the PIs to create an enhanced formulation for amorphous oxynitride electrolytes and then employ them in the design of a more stable, higher performing microbattery that can meet future demand for powerful, stable, but miniaturized sources of stored energy.
