Physical Chemistry Seminar

Event details Date: Tuesday, September 1, 2026 Time: 4:00 PM to 4:00 PM Location: 120 Latimer Hall Type: Sports Audience: Alumni,Faculty,Public,Students About this event Oleg Shpyrko, Department Chair, UC San Diego X-ray Nanovision of Ionic Dynamics Ionic motion at the nanoscale remains poorly understood, largely because operando tools capable of resolving ions moving through a crystalline lattice have not existed until very recently. I will present several studies that use Coherent X-ray scattering techniques to directly image and probe ionic transport inside operating energy storage devices and the structural response of the underlying atomic lattice to that transport. The Physical Seminar Series is sponsored by the George C. Pimentel lecture fund Official event details: https://events.berkeley.edu/chem/event/317648-physical-chemistry-seminar
