Focus Issue on Molten Salts and Ionic Liquids III

Posted on December 9, 2022 by ECS Staff

The Journal of The Electrochemical Society is publishing a focus issue in connection with the Molten Salts and Ionic Liquids 23 (MSIL-23) symposium at the 242nd Meeting of The Electrochemical Society. This is the premier symposium on Molten Salts and Ionic Liquids, and has consistently run a full five days since its inception.

The use of molten salts and ionic liquids has a long tradition in electrochemical processes such as electrodeposition, energy storage and conversion, etc. As the third in a series, this focus issue covers the following molten salts and ionic liquids topics: (more…)

ECS Battery Division recognizes 2022 Student Research Award Winners

Posted on December 1, 2022 by ECS Staff

Congratulations to John Holoubek, University of California, San Diego, and Singyuk Hou, University of Maryland, College Park, the 2022 ECS Battery Division Student Research Award winners. Holoubek and Hou presented their award talks at the 242nd ECS Meeting in Atlanta, GA, where they received the awards from Y. Shirley Meng and Brett Lucht.

Singyuk Hou
University of Maryland, College Park
A03-0211 Energy Storage with the Abundant Divalent Metal Batteries

Singyuk Hou’s academic career has focused on the research of electrolytes and interfaces for metal anodes. After completing her BS and MS in Chemistry, she started her PhD under the supervision of Professor Chunsheng Wang at the University of Maryland, College Park. Her PhD research is on the molecule-level control of the solvation structure using chelants that promote the charge transfer kinetics of magnesium and calcium metal batteries. It also extends to SEI engineering for high-energy lithium-ion and lithium metal batteries by developing novel electrolyte systems. She has published more than 50 peer-reviewed papers and co-authored four patents.
