A research team led by Dr. Sunshin Jung at the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) has developed a breakthrough technology that effectively eliminates pests without the use of pesticides...

Because of the financial insecurity of my youth, I never went to university. I did graduate from an Electrotechnology program at a provincial college level in Québec, which provided me with a great job at age 19. I had interviewed to become a servo-actuator tech on airplane simulators, but the union was on strike, so I was offered a non-unionized staff job instead: technical writer. “Technical writer? What’s that?” I’d asked. And that folks, was the beginning of a two-decade career. Throughout my adult life, I'd had “equivalent experience,” so I didn’t require a degree to do my job.

The Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) and the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) have jointly developed spray drying technology-based high-performance dry electrode manufacturing technology for the realization of high-capacity secondary batteries.

A research team led by Dr. Nam Ki-Hun at the Battery Materials and Process Research Center of the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) has successfully developed a nano-tin (Sn) interlayer control technology to address interfacial instability between the lithium metal anode and solid electrolyte, a critical hurdle to the commercialization of all-solid-state batteries, often hailed as the next generation of batteries.

Researchers at Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute have developed an enhanced coprecipitation method that dramatically improves the production of all-solid-state batteries.

Developed by a research team at the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI), the technology enables ultrafast, 30-second preparation of hard carbon anodes for sodium-ion batteries using micr...

A research team led by Dr. Seo Jae-hwa at Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) Advanced Semiconductor Research Center, working with Professor Yoon Young-jun's team at Kyungpook National University, has achieved Korea's first demonstration of a silicon carbide (SiC)-based betavoltaic cell designed to generate electricity for more than 50 years without recharging or replacement, even in extreme environments such as space and the polar regions. The findings have been published in the International Journal of Energy Research.

An estimated 100 Charles Darwin University students in the electrotechnology program have not been properly trained, Education and Training Minister Jo Hersey revealed in Parliament Thursday afternoon, which follows CDU's TAFE carpentry training bungle earlier this year that saw hundreds forced to…

# Expected to enable longer EV driving ranges and fast charging while demonstrating the commercialization potential of environmentally friendly battery manufacturing processes Newswise — CHANGWON, South Korea — Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS), led by President Chul-jin Choi, announced that a research team led by Jihee Yoon of the Advanced Materials Research Division, in collaboration with a team led by Insung Hwang of Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI), has developed Korea’s first shape-controlled graphite granule-based dry electrode manufacturing technology capable of producing high-performance batteries without using polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), a key material in conventional dry-electrode processes. The technology is expected to extend electric vehicle (EV) driving range, reduce charging time, and accelerate the commercialization of next-generation environmentally friendly battery manufacturing processes. As demand for electric vehicles and energy storage systems (ESS) continues to grow, competition to develop high-energy-density batteries with longer operating life and faster charging capabilities has intensified. In particular, dry-electrode technology, which minimizes the use of organic solvents and drying processes during battery manufacturing, has emerged as a promising next-generation production method. Although dry-electrode technology offers significant advantages in reducing manufacturing costs and carbon emissions, most existing approaches rely heavily on PTFE, making the development of alternative technologies...
