A lithium-ion battery comprises essentially three components: two
intercalation compounds as positive and negative electrodes, separated
by an ionic-electronic electrolyte. Each component is discussed in
sufficient detail to give the practising engineer an understanding of
the subject, providing guidance on the selection of suitable materials
in actual applications. Each topic covered is written by an expert,
reflecting many years of experience in research and applications. Each
topic is provided with an extensive list of references, allowing easy
access to further information.
Readership: Research students and engineers seeking an expert review.
Graduate courses in electrical drives can also be designed around the
book by selecting sections for discussion. The coverage and treatment
make the book indispensable for the lithium battery community
