High-throughput Quantum Chemistry and Virtual Screening for Lithium Ion Batte...BIOVIA
The use of virtual structure libraries for computational screening to identify lead systems for further investigation has become a standard approach in drug discovery. Transferring this paradigm to challenges in material science is a recent possibility due to advances in the speed of computational resources and the efficiency and stability of materials modeling packages. This makes it possible for individual calculation steps to be executed in sequence comprising a high-throughput quantum chemistry workflow, in which material systems of varying structure and composition are analyzed in an automated fashion with the results collected in a growing data record. This record can then be sorted and mined to identify lead candidates and establish critical structure-property limits within a given chemical design space. To-date, only a small number of studies have been reported in which quantum chemical calculations are used in a high-throughput fashion to compute properties and screen for optimal materials solutions. However, with time, high-throughput computational screening will become central to advanced materials research.
In this presentation, the use of high-throughput quantum chemistry to analyze and screen a materials structure library is demonstrated for Li-Ion battery additives based on ethylene carbonate (EC).

A global overview of the geology and economics of lithium productionJohn Sykes
Lithium demand is growing fast, driven by a wide range of battery applications, which are in turn changing the structure of
demand, the lithium supply chain and potentially raw material requirements though much still remains uncertain;
•
Geologically ‘brine’ salars and ‘hard rock’ pegmatites remain the most important lithium deposit types in terms of
production and undeveloped resources, however, there are some interesting emerging sedimentary / clay deposits and
unconventional brine concepts and lithium remains very ‘under explored’ globally;
•
Spodumene pegmatites in Australia are the fastest growing source of supply, however, long term competitiveness may be
dependent on successful downstream integration targeting the battery industry;
•
The concept of a Western Australian ‘Lithium Valley’ is possible, despite high costs, due to the number of quality mines,
proximity to Asia, and the unit reduction in freight costs associated with the low grade spodumene concentrate , in addition
to the ‘cluster effect’ of many minerals businesses, specialists and students;
•
The ‘green’ association of lithium use presents a challenge of ‘strategic coherence’ to explorers and miners impacting
decisions around exploration, mining, investors, stakeholders, and leadership;

But remember, we are in an unsustainable ‘lithium boom’ of high prices and high volume growth future long term growth
of the industry is reliant on structurally lower prices, and thus structurally lower costs.

In this paper we discuss the market potential for smart materials in the construction space. Various smart materials, coatings and surfaces are addressed along with market sizes
Evaluating Opportunities for Solar PV in Mobile Electronic Devicesn-tech Research
PV technology has been paired with small electronic devices for decades, most notably in calculators. What's new here is the emergence of alternative PV technologies -- organic PV (OPV), dye-sensitized (DSC), and thin-film variants such as CIGS -- promising not only those specific capabilities, but also potentially produced in large volumes using low-cost manufacturing processes. Many within these PV sectors are developing the technology with an eye toward building-integrated PV (BIPV), but strict performance and lifetime requirements mean this is still some ways off. Consumer electronics, on the other hand, presents an alluring easier target with opportunities right now, and potentially massive addressable volumes.
The Evolving Building Integrated Photovoltaics Marketn-tech Research
n-tech Research has witnessed the progression of technologies and products and suppliers into—and more often, out of—the BIPV market over the past six years. This market, as we see it now, is in a transition and must refine its messaging to an end-user base with shifting priorities.
More than ever, BIPV needs to be sold—and technologically developed—with an emphasis on aesthetics and what can be called its "smart" capabilities, vs. simply energy generation.
While energy efficiency is – and will remain – an important factor shaping sales of BIPV products. This means that in the future there will be more dimensions along which BIPV firms can compete. These, for example, would include color, transparency and substrate conformability.
We predict an acceleration toward truly integrated BIPV products within a building envelope, and a reshaping of manufacturing strategies and supply chains to develop and deliver these products.

Within the emerging category of wearable computing, arguably the most characteristic product to emerge is "smart glasses" which mesh the communications capabilities of smartphones with additional visual and other sensual enhancements, including augmented reality. The primary selling feature of smart glasses is their ability to display video, navigation, messaging, augmented reality (AR) applications, and games on a large virtual screen, all completely hands-free. The current poster child for smart glasses is Google’s "Glass" product, but there are more than 20 firms offering smart glasses or planning to do so.
The hands-free nature of smart glasses opens up new possibilities for human-computer interfaces (HCI), drawing from smart phones as well as interfaces developed in other contexts (e.g. virtual reality). Early smart glasses models are leaning on mature and low-cost technologies with notable influence from smartphones; however we see a gradual trend for smart glasses (and other wearable computing devices) to be driven by more natural interface controls, once these technologies have time to mature as well -- and they're getting remarkably close.
Power Sources for the Internet-of-Things: Markets and Strategiesn-tech Research
NanoMarkets believes that the deployments of sensors and processors for the Internet-of-Things (IoT) are creating huge new opportunities for manufacturers of power source devices. Because of IoT, power devices such as thin-film and printed batteries, energy harvesting modules, small flexible photovoltaics panels and thermoelectric sources, which have enjoyed marginal revenues up to now, may begin generating hundreds of millions of dollars in annual revenues.
However, suppliers of IoT power sources, as well as the semiconductor industry more generally face significant uncertainties in the IoT space. Not only is future of the IoT itself unclear, but also how the IoT “power infrastructure” will shape up technologically is a great unknown.
The objective of this report is to identify where the money will be made and lost in the emergent IoT power source business. It begins with an assessment of the power requirements of the various devices that NanoMarkets believes will form the “things” in the IoT. These include sensor networks, MCUs/MPUs and tagging devices, for example. The report continues by considering how established technologies such as batteries will adapt to new IoT opportunities and whether emerging technologies such as energy harvesting and thermoelectric power sources will find their first big markets as the result of IoT.
The report explores the opportunities for all industry sectors that will be impacted by the development of new power sources for the IoT. In particular we examine how leading battery companies, chipmakers, OEMs and others are preparing for the business opportunities in the IoT power source space. The report also discusses the strategies of eight firms that NanoMarkets believes will shape the market for power sources for the IoT over the next decade.
We believe that this report will be essential reading for business development and marketing executives in the battery, energy harvesting, RFID, sensors, photovoltaics and semiconductor industries, as well as the investment community. In addition to providing a thorough analysis of the IoT power source markets, this report also provides detailed eight-year forecasts of power sources for the IoT in both volume and value terms and with break outs by power source types.

Translating CIGS Efficiency Improvements Into Market Opportunityn-tech Research
NanoMarkets sees broader adoption of both BIPV and CIGS hinging on a trade-off between cost and reliability, with lower-cost encapsulations emerging that offer minimal performance. We also note that transparency of the barrier also is very important, since any light obstruction directly reduces the performance of the PV cells within; we expect competition on this front as well.
The multimillion-dollar question about BIPV is this: what will convince customers -- architects, builders, and homeowners, even construction materials suppliers and financing entities -- to justify the extra expense in a BIPV application? Companies and organizations continue to improve and innovate around the technologies involve with building-integrated photovoltaics (PV), from new cell designs and technologies such as PERC, metal wrap-through, and "smart wire" structures, to new and improved materials from thin-film CIGS to dye-sensitized and organic PV, and the latest solar PV wonder-material perovskite. Standardization will help reduce the complexity (and thus costs) of BIPV installations; this already has made some headway in the U.K. for products such as roof tiles and shingles. These are needed progress in performance and cost reductions, but they're not enough.
NanoMarkets believes the answer lies in other factors to consider
Information provided in this presentation are taken from NanoMarkets' report:-"Smart Glass Opportunities in the Automotive Industry—2014." It makes an assessment of smart glass technology for automotive applications. It also highlights the key trends that are likely to shape the revenue potential of smart automotive sector in the coming years.
As niche market image of BIPV is changing, this presentation talks about various opportunities that exists for both PV firms and glass firms in this space. It talks about those factors that are likely to influence BIPV markets in the coming years. Also it discusses as how attempts are made to integrate supply chain of BIPV with the supply chain of local construction market and how BIPV firms are trying to build their own distribution network. Information provided in this presentation are taken from NanoMarkets' report:- "BIPV Glass Markets-2014 & Beyond'
This articles has been taken from NanoMarkets' upcoming report-"BIPV Glass 2014" and talks about various opportunities existing in BIPV glass segment. Solar energy sector is not able to perform well for quite a long time but how BIPV can score better compared to traditional solar panels, get your answer here.

Lithium Polymer Batteries
• Lithium polymer batteries (Li-poly or LiPo) are rechargeable
batteries that have technologically evolved from lithium-ion
batteries. The lithium-salt electrolyte is held in a solid polymer
composite such as polyacrylonitrile or polyethylene oxide
• Because there is no battery casing required, a lithium polymer
battery can be lighter than a regular lithium battery and it can
also be shaped to fit the device it will power
• In addition, it offers denser packaging, which results in an
energy density for Li-poly batteries that is over 20 percent
higher than that of a classic Li-ion battery
• Two firms developing thin-film batteries based on this
chemistry are Solicore and Ultralife
