  • Co-authored a conference paper on cathode-interface coatings; manuscript in preparation for a peer-reviewed journal.
Cover letter excerpt

Japan's materials-science ecosystem is the right environment for my next step because my research depends on tight collaboration between synthesis, characterization, and failure analysis.

I am applying through MEXT because I need structured doctoral training and access to advanced characterization facilities to study solid electrolytes for hot-climate deployment.

After the programme, I intend to contribute to energy-storage research that is relevant to India's grid-transition needs.

Field of study and research plan

800 words

My research plan focuses on interface-stable solid electrolytes for lithium-metal cells operating above 40°C. I will compare dopant strategies for LLZO and measure how interfacial resistance evolves over 200 cycles.

Motivation for studying in Japan

600 words

Japan combines rigorous materials characterization culture with long-term investment in battery research. I want to learn experimental discipline and collaborative lab practice that I can bring back to India's growing energy-storage sector.
