Harvard’s John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences researchers have developed a new lithium metal battery that can be charged and discharged at least 6,000 times. That’s more than any other pouch battery cell – and can be recharged in a matter of minutes. The cycle count equals more than 16 years of […]

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Researchers from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have shown that the sodium-ion battery has an equivalent climate impact as their lithium-ion competitors – without the risk of running out of raw materials. The transition to a society without fossil fuels means that the need for batteries is increasing at a rapid pace. At […]

University of Freiburg researchers have developed a monolithically integrated photo battery using organic materials that is capable of powering miniature devices. The photo battery achieves an unprecedented high discharge potential of 3.6 volts.. The team published the information about the technology in the journal Energy & Environmental Science. Networked intelligent devices and sensors can improve […]

University of Maryland researchers studying how lithium batteries fail have developed a new technology that could enable next-generation electric vehicles (EVs) and other devices that are less prone to battery fires while increasing energy storage. The innovative method described in a paper published in the journal Nature, suppresses the growth of lithium dendrites – damaging […]

Tokyo University of Science researchers have developed a graphene separator embedded with platinum-doped gold nanoclusters for lithium sulfur batteries. But issues like formation of lithium polysulfides and lithium dendrites lead to capacity loss and raise safety concerns. Yet lithium sulfur batteries (LSBs) offer a higher energy storage potential and with the new separator have enhanced […]
