\nAbstract: \;Autonomous laboratories aim to close the gap between the rates of computational screening and experimental rea lization of novel materials. Here\, we discuss the development of autonomo us platforms for solid-state chemistry\, spanning automated synthesis\, au tomated characterization and automated data analysis. We further present t he expansion of these capabilities to include non-equilibrium \;synthe sis\, which enable ultrafast heating and cooling rates\, access to otherwi se inaccessible phases\, and on-demand control of kinetic pathways. \; Concrete examples will be presented in heterogeneous catalysis for CO2 red uction and in lithium cathode active materials\, highlighting the impact o f non-equilibrium synthesis on energy-relevant materials discovery.
\n< p>Short bio: Jose Recatalà Gómez is a Junior Group Lead er at the Berkeley Education Alliance for Research in Singapore (BEARS) an d a Visiting Scholar at the University of California\, Berkeley. \;He holds a PhD in Chemistry from the University of Southampton\, where his re search focused on nanoscale thermoelectric chalcogenides. \;He was awa rded an A*STAR Research Attachment Programme (ARAP) to conduct part of his research at the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE) in Singapore. His research integrates artificial intelligence\, robotics\, a nd non-equilibrium solid-state synthesis to discover new energy materials. \nHosted by Prof. Pablo Ordejón\, Distinguished R esearcher\, Director ICN2 and Group Leader\, Theory and Simulation \;group at ICN2.
