John B. Goodenough, who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2019 for his work on the development of the lithium-ion battery, died Sunday at the age of 100, says the university.
In 1979, Goodenough showed that by using lithium cobalt oxide as the cathode of a lithium-ion rechargeable battery, it would be possible to achieve a high density of stored energy with an anode other than metallic lithium.
Goodenough is one of four Nobel laureate professors at UT Austin, including physicist Steven Weinberg in 1979, Hermann J. Muller in medicine and physiology in 1946 and Ilya Prigogine in chemistry in 1977. Muller and Prigogine preceded Goodenough in death. Goodenough was also the recipient of the National Medal of Science, the Japan Prize, the Charles Stark Draper Prize, the Benjamin Franklin Medal, the Enrico Fermi Award, the Robert A. Welch Award, the Copley Medal and many others. He has authored several books, including an autobiography titled "Witness to Grace," published in 2008.
In 2022, in honor of his 100th birthday, scientists and engineers in the global battery and solid-state science communities came together for a symposium to share stories of Goodenough’s impact and discuss challenging problems in condensed matter physics and chemistry and the next generation of battery research.
