  • AT&TNetworking Engineering & Operations Recruiting Event (Virtual)

    Wed, Jan 19, 2022 @ 09:00 AM - 10:00 AM

    Viterbi School of Engineering Career Connections

    Workshops & Infosessions


    Register on ConnectSC for this event.

    Join MJ Brosowske, Lead College Recruiting Manager and learn how you can join the AT&T Network Engineer team in a robust rotation engineering program. As a network engineer, you'll spend your time in the Technology Development Program with the group responsible for the architecture, engineering, and operation of AT&Ts outstanding wireless and fiber-based networks.

    You will be creating, communicating, project managing and implementing plans for voice, video, and data technologies to take AT&T to the next generation of automated self-managed networks. By providing you a wide breadth of technical, leadership, and supervisory experiences and pairing you with our strongest managers and exposure to executive leaders our goal is to develop the technical leaders of tomorrow's network.

    In this role you may be planning future cell locations for the latest high capacity Wireless 5G network or managing the high-capacity router network growth plans or optical fiber build plans that enable streaming video. To do this you will be analyzing data, working with vendors, and transforming information into a story, plan, and status, you communicate to cross functional teams and leaders to help drive key decisions and keep complex projects on track.

    * This Trojan Talk is being hosted virtually. All interested participants are required to RSVP. Once registered, you will receive the login details via email.

    Talk Title: Elucidating the thermodynamic origins of reaction heterogeneity in lithium-ion batteries

    Abstract: During battery cycling, pronounced reaction non-uniformity frequently develops at multiple length scales within electrodes, which adversely impacts battery performance and life by inducing capacity under-utilization, stress concentration and over-(dis)charging. While heterogeneous reactions are typically attributed to mass transport limitations, thermodynamic factors also play an important role and need to be clarified for developing effective mitigation strategies. At the particle level, we reveal how stress could destabilize the lithium (de)lithiation front in single crystalline and polycrystalline intercalation compounds. Stress also provides a fundamental thermodynamic driving force for dendrite growth on lithium metal anodes, which is shown to be effectively suppressed by stress relief. At the cell level, we discover that the reaction distribution within the porous electrode is strongly influenced by how the equilibrium potential of the active material varies with the state of charge. Two types of reaction behavior are identified for common electrode materials, which have significant implications for their applications in thick electrodes. Based on this finding, an analytical model is formulated to provide highly efficient battery performance predictions and optimization in place of traditional battery cell simulations.

    Biography: Ming Tang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Materials Science and NanoEngineering at Rice University. After receiving a Ph.D. degree in Materials Science and Engineering from MIT, He worked at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as a Lawrence Postdoctoral Fellow and then a staff scientist. In 2013 he joined Shell Oil as a materials and corrosion engineer, and became an assistant professor at Rice University in 2015. His group is currently interested in applying combined modeling and experimental methods to understand mesoscale phenomena in energy storage systems and use the acquired knowledge to guide microstructure design. He is a recipient of the DOE Early Career Award.
