Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) power electric vehicles and electronics. With the prevalence of these set to increase, efforts have been directed towards improving the performance and longevity of LIBs. Now […]

The National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) researchers have developed an anode material for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries by forming nanoparticles made of silicon metal composites on metal substrates. The resulting anode material has a high capacity – almost twice as high as conventional materials – and a long cycling life. The results could lead to […]

University of Waterloo researchers have developed an innovative technology using silicon to improve lithium-ion battery anodes. Zhongwei Chen, a chemical engineering professor at Waterloo, and a team of graduate students have created a low-cost battery using silicon that boosts the performance and life of lithium-ion batteries. Substantially smaller and longer-lasting batteries for everything from portable […]
