About MUSIC
MUSIC is one of the 6th Class of EFRCs funded in 2022 and dedicated towards mechano-chemical understanding of ceramic ionic conductors (CICs). MUSIC integrates the fields of materials science, electrochemistry, and solid-state mechanics to understand the mechano-electrochemical phenomena underlying the manufacturing and operation of ceramics for advanced electrochemical technologies. The fundamental knowledge created will advance electrochemical energy storage systems such as long-duration energy storage, hydrogen fuel cells, and solid-state.
