معرفی
William Brant is a Senior Lecturer at the Department of Chemistry - Ångström Laboratory; Structural Chemistry at Uppsala University. His research focuses on dynamic non-equilibrium processes in crystalline materials, particularly their role in battery performance and new material design.
- Expertise in diffraction techniques (neutron and X-ray) for in situ and in operando analysis.
- Key themes: battery materials, crystallography, electrochemical energy storage, and non-equilibrium structural dynamics.
Brant’s work centers on crystallographic stability in lithium- and sodium-ion batteries, with a focus on phase transitions, cation ordering, and degradation mechanisms. His in operando studies bridge atomic-scale structural changes to macroscopic device performance.
Recent publications highlight advancements in Prussian blue analogues, layered oxides, and aqueous-processed cathodes. Techniques include synchrotron X-ray diffraction, positron annihilation, and ambient pressure XPS.
As a member of the Ångström Laboratory, Brant contributes to interdisciplinary research in electrochemical energy storage, collaborating on material innovation and sustainable battery design.
