Description:Research Seminar Abstract\n\nCommercial industries currently ut
 ilize graphite as the primary lithium anode material for secondary batteri
 es. Graphite’s gravimetric capacity\, however\, has already been fully u
 tilized and materials with higher capacities are more desirable for the ad
 vancement of next generation applications\, such as electric vehicles. Of 
 these materials\, intermetallic alloys such as SnSb are of interest due to
  their ability to store multiple alkali metals per metal center\, resultin
 g in higher gravimetric and volumetric capacities. Electrodeposition is a 
 promising method to produce these alloy anodes\, as it can control the par
 ticle morphology\, size\, thickness\, composition\, and is easily scalable
  to larger productions. In this talk\, we will present the first successfu
 l synthesis of pure SnSb by electrodeposition. The synthesis and products 
 were carefully analyzed through a variety of techniques to better understa
 nd conditions that must be controlled in order to produce the pure SnSb. E
 lectrochemical testing of the electrodeposited SnSb samples showed promisi
 ng performance of the material\, with long cycle life and high rate capabi
 lities as both lithium- and sodium- ion battery anodes. It is also found t
 hat purity of the electrodeposited material has an evident impact on the e
 lectrochemical performance of the electrode\, in which control of the puri
 ty is important to the material’s cycling lifetime. 4:00 pm
