IBPC Best Poster Award 2026 for KIT-TFT doctoral researcher for multilayer coating of all-solid-state (ASSB) batteries

04.11. – 05.11.2026, Braunschweig, Germany

Mika Stricker, doctoral researcher in the TFT group, received the Best Poster Award at the International Battery Production Conference (IBPC) 2026 for the poster with the title “Advanced Multilayer Slot-Die Coating of Lithium-Ion Battery Electrodes” authors: M. Stricker, A. Hoffmann, J. Dörr, P. Scharfer and W. Schabel.

The poster shows how several electrode layers can be coated simultaneously in a single slot-die step for lithium-ion and all-solid-state battery (ASSB) electrodes. Coloured model fluids make coating defects visible in each layer, and a fast simulation model predicts stable process windows in good agreement with experiments – a step towards the efficient production of tailored multilayer electrodes.

Congratulations!
