2009 Impact on Scientific Community
Jason Zhang Invited to write a chapter for the Handbook of Battery Materials
Congratulations to Jason Zhang on being invited to write a chapter for the Handbook of Battery Materials. This second edition is being published by Wiley-VCH. Zhang's 20-page chapter will focus on recent findings in metal air batteries and will illustrate the technology, barriers, and potential of such devices.
Zhang was selected because of his expertise in lithium batteries. Through PNNL's Transformational Materials Science Initiative, he studies nanostructured materials for energy storage, especially for transportation and portable electronics applications. His work and willingness to share it with the scientific community will advance the frontiers of nanostructured electrochemically active materials in energy storage devices. (announced 7/1/2009)
