Research into next-generation batteries involves continuous experimentation with alternative materials that might unlock significant performance gains, and a new breakthrough offers a compelling ...

New research has identified a nanostructure that improves the anode in lithium-ion batteries. Instead of using graphite for the anode, the researchers turned to silicon: a material that stores more ...

Researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences said they developed a solid-state lithium-metal battery ...

Lithium was supposed to be soft. The metal bends easily in bulk form, stretches before it breaks, and deforms the way you might expect a pliable material to behave. Scientists who studied the tiny ...

Emerging electrolytes with a different microstructure to conventional electrolytes may help advance lithium batteries to keep pace with future technologies, according to a review paper from ...

Elevating the sintering temperature from 850 to 900°C transform the lithium-manganese-rich cathode from solid-solution structure to chemical separated two-phase structure, which is triggered by the ...
