Abstract:
The vast electronics market demands highly tailored power sources to suit specific application environments. Traditional battery production lines struggle to keep up with the rapidly evolving and diverse requirements. Additive manufacturing stands out for its exceptional customization capabilities and efficiency. However, power sources, predominantly batteries, produced through additive manufacturing have yet to reach the commercialization stage due to technical and cost challenges. We invite abstract submissions that highlight advancements in additive manufacturing and associated technologies for battery and supercapacitor applications. We welcome both experimental and computational contributions. Potential power sources encompass lithium-ion batteries, non-lithium-ion batteries (sodium, zinc, magnesium, aluminum, etc.), lithium-metal batteries, solid-state batteries, metal-air batteries, supercapacitors, and other emerging systems. Additionally, we seek characterization and simulation tools that elucidate battery failure mechanisms. From an industrial standpoint, insights into cost and scalability are particularly valued.
