Development and promotion of large storage batteries are indispensable for the realization of electric vehicles and smart grid networks, which are currently attracting attention as decisive factors in solving our environmental and energy problems. To deal with these problems, our group intend to develop all-solid-state batteries to improve large-battery safety and reliability, and we also intend to substitute polyvalent cation batteries for lithium batteries to increase energy densification.

Our group combines machine-learning techniques with computational science approaches to develop and apply new methods for exploring magnet compounds. We also analyze data on microstructure and magnetization reversal obtained from experiments and simulations and clarify the coercivity mechanisms. (Learn more)
