Andrea Bruck

Andrea Bruck is a former PhD student contributor to Physics World. Andrea studied electrochemistry at Stony Brook University in the US, focusing on the fundamental process that occur in a battery during its operation and how synchrotron-based characterization can elucidate the chemical processes that cause battery failure. She hopes to improve energy-storage technology, helping to decrease the world’s reliance on non-renewable resources.

Cryo-electron microscopy reveals surface of lithium metal in batteries

For the first time, cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has been used to study the most challenging material in lithium batteries – the lithium metal anode. Previously, it was impossible to study lithium and its interfaces with high-resolution electron microscopy because of the severe beam damage resulting from high electron doses. By using cryogenic conditions to prevent […]
