Project milestones

• Kick-off meeting in Oxipath: March 3, 2017, Oslo/Trondheim.
• 1st annual Oxipath scientific meeting: August 22, 2017, Oslo/Trondheim.
• Novel cathode materials synthesized: November 8th 2017
  In Oxipath, SINTEF has prepared novel high energy cathode materials for Li ion batteries with different stoichiometries. The electrochemical characterization is on-going, and shows that the properties are comparable to state-of-the-art cathodes.
• 1st lead-free piezoelectric thin film sputtered: March 23rd 2018, Oslo, Norway.
  This was the first time we attempted to sputter a lead-free piezoelectric thin film with our new Polyteknik Flextura deposition cluster system . A Barium calcium titanate thin film was successfully deposited on a Si wafer!
