معرفی
Marnix Wagemaker is a Professor and Head of the Storage of Electrochemical Energy (SEE) section within the Department of Radiation Science & Technology at the Faculty of Applied Sciences, Delft University of Technology (TU Delft), Netherlands. His research focuses on advancing next-generation battery technologies through a combination of experimental and computational approaches.
His research interests center on electrochemical energy storage, particularly in solid-state batteries, lithium-ion, lithium-air, and aqueous sodium/zinc batteries. He specializes in understanding the fundamental mechanisms of ionic transport, interfacial dynamics, and structural transformations in battery materials. His group employs advanced operando characterization techniques such as neutron depth profiling, micro-beam synchrotron diffraction, and solid-state NMR, combined with ab-initio simulations (DFT, phase-field modeling) to reveal processes at atomic to mesoscopic scales.
The recent research articles highlight a strong trend in solid electrolyte design, interfacial engineering, and operando investigation of ion dynamics in both lithium and post-lithium systems. His work spans fundamental material discovery to performance optimization for high-energy, safe, and sustainable batteries.
Wagemaker leads major research projects funded by NWO VICI, Materials for Sustainability, and collaborations with industry via the top sector and TTW. He has developed innovative experimental methodologies and holds patents in battery materials and electrolyte systems.
He advises a research group involved in both fundamental and applied battery research, contributing significantly to the advancement of all-solid-state batteries and next-generation energy storage solutions. His work is conducted in close collaboration with national and international academic and industrial partners.
