Major breakthroughs in lithium-ion batteries and perovskite solar cells require advances in new compositions and underpinning materials chemistry. Indeed, a greater fundamental understanding of energy materials requires atomic-scale characterization of their underlying structural, defect and transport behaviour. In this context, combined modelling-experimental work is now a powerful approach for investigating these properties at the atomistic level. This presentation will describe such studies [1-4] in two principal areas: (i) ion conduction and grain boundary effects in oxide electrodes and solid electrolytes for Li-ion batteries; and (ii) defect chemistry and ion diffusion in hybrid iodide perovskites for solar cells.
