Metal Nanoclusters For Stable Lithium Sulfur Batteries
November 29, 2023 | Leave a Comment
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 […]
