| Citation | Linda Nazar is recognised for her formative contributions to the field of solid state electrochemistry, especially lithium and sodium batteries. She has led advances in the lithium-sulphur battery, including new approaches to mitigate the polysulphide effect, a longstanding problem in the field. Nazar pioneered the understanding of ion and electron transport in lithium and sodium transition metal polyanion intercalation frameworks, and has recently achieved several breakthroughs in solid state superionic conduction. Her work is distinguished by using a blend of cutting edge diffraction, spectroscopic, and lectrochemical physical characterisation tools to probe structure and redox mechanisms, coupled with materials synthesis for "beyond-Li" batteries. |
