The book focuses on the solid-state physics, chemistry and electrochemistry that are needed to grasp the technology of and research on high-power Lithium batteries. After an exposition of fundamentals of lithium batteries, it includes experimental techniques used to characterize electrode materials, and a comprehensive analysis of the structural, physical, and chemical properties necessary to insure quality control in production. The different properties specific to each component of the batteries are discussed in order to offer manufacturers the capability to choose which kind of battery should be used: which compromise between power and energy density and which compromise between energy and safety should be made, and for which cycling life. Although attention is primarily on electrode materials since they are paramount in terms of battery performance and cost, different electrolytes are also reviewed in the context of safety concerns and in relation to the solid-electrolyte interface. Separators are also reviewed in light of safety issues. The book is intended not only for scientists and graduate students working on batteries but also for engineers and technologists who want to acquire a sound grounding in the fundamentals of battery science arising from the interaction of electrochemistry, solid state materials science, surfaces and interfaces.

Après tant d'années de vie commune, hommes et femmes ne se connaissent toujours pas. Leurs émotions les unissent parfois, elles les opposent le plus souvent. Combien de malentendus, de brouilles ou de conflits seraient pourtant évités si chaque sexe voulait entendre l'autre!Chaque sexe a sa propre culture affective. Rendons-nous à l'évidence. Oui, les hommes sont plus portés à la colère et les femmes plus sujettes à l'angoisse. Non, l'orgueil masculin n'est pas un mythe ni l'intuition féminine une fable. Les différences existent. Pourquoi ne pas en tenir compte?Nous sommes sans doute destinés à être surpris toute notre vie par l'autre sexe. Mais devons-nous pour autant renoncer à l'espoir de voir un jour homme et femmes parler la même langue et enfin se comprendre?
