Collaborations
CIDETEC-IK4
Collaboration in the framework of ETORTEK programs related to the Electric Energy Storage in the researching of new active materials for lithium ion batteries in both sides: cathods and electrolites.
Paul Scherrer Institute (Villingen, Suiza).
Collaboration of CIC Staff in the project of "in situ Characterization of Interfaces in Lithium-Ion Batteries with Combined Raman- and Infrared Microscopy" leaded by Dr. Petr Novak. The agreement is not only oriented to this specific project but also to establish a long-term collaboration framework for employee swapping and developing joint research projects. After the collaboration CIC Staff will rejoin their own CIC work and research groups, maintaining the collaboration dynamics acquired during their transfer.
Universite Paul Sabatier – CNRS Toulouse (Francia).
Collaboration of CIC Staff in the project of Design of nanostructured positive electrodes for pseudo-capacitors in aqueus electrolyte: oxide-based materials. leaded by Dr. Patrice Simon & Pierre Louis Taberna. The agreement is not only oriented to this specific project but also to establish a framework for employee swapping and developing joint research projects. After the collaboration CIC Staff will rejoin their own CIC work and research groups, maintaining the collaboration dynamics acquired during their transfer
Universite Picardie – CNRS Amiens (Francia).
Collaboration agreement oriented to provide a full detailed investigation of the physics (magnetism, electron transport) as well as the structural properties of new phosphate materials as a complementary support of already undertaken investigations through solid state NMR, Mössbauer, EXAFS-XANES spectroscopies and X-ray/neutron/electron diffraction. This is of great importance to understand the exact and intriguing mechanism of Li+ and/or electron transport within these compounds for which the main application foreseen is within high rate batteries used for power tools and electric vehicles. The collaboration includes developing insitu techniques so as to probe the structural / magnetic / electronic changes within these materials being of vital importance for a clear understanding of the mechanisms involved during battery operation and for the possible discovery of unusual behaviour in compositions that cannot be isolated through “standard” chemistry. Dr. Christian Masquelier, is leading this joint project.
Universty of Cambridge (Cambridge, UK)
Long-term collaboration framework for employee swapping and developing joint research projects. After the collaboration CIC Staff will rejoin their own CIC work and research groups, maintaining the collaboration dynamics acquired during their transfer. The first project in which there is CIC staff collaborating is "the Development and application of short-range probes of structure, to perform in- and ex-situ studies of lithium-ion battery materials" leaded by Dr. Clare Grey.
CIEMAT
Cooperation agreement between CIEMAT and CIC energiGUNE on issues related to research into energy storage (electrochemical, high-temperature thermal and thermochemical cycles using) and the training of researchers. Specifically, it sets the framework for collaboration on the following areas:
* Joint research
* Education projects
* Employee swapping
* Joint use of infrastructures
CSIC - ICMAB
Cooperation agreement between CSIC and CIC energiGUNE on issues related to research in chemical sciences, physical and materials, related to the energy field and the training of researchers. Specifically, it sets the framework for collaboration on the following areas:
* Joint research
* Education projects
* Employee swapping
* Joint use of infrastructures
These collaborative projects are led by Dr. Rosa Palacin.
IKERLAN - IK4
Collaboration in the framework of ETORTEK programs in research activities oriented to develop new forecast models of ion litium batteries behavior
INASMET - Tecnalia
Collaboration in the framework of ETORTEK programs related to the Electric Energy Storage in the researching of new active materials for lithium ion batteries in both sides: cathods and electrolites
