Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… A team led by Jennifer L. M. Rupp at MIT, Cambridge, USA, and TU Munich, Germany, has now developed such a new synthetic process to make lithium ceramic rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. The team has their research results published in the journal Angewandte Chemie.  A lithium ceramic could act as a solid electrolyte in a […]

The research findings have been published in Nature. Using advanced imaging techniques, the team revealed mechanisms which cause lithium metal solid-state batteries (Li-SSBs) to fail. If these can be overcome, solid-state […]

Argonne National Laboratory scientists have built and tested for a thousand cycles a new lithium-air battery design. The new design could one day power cars, domestic airplanes, long-haul trucks and more. That’s because the energy storage capacity greatly surpasses that possible with lithium-ion batteries. Many owners of electric cars have wished for a battery pack […]

A Pohang University of Science & Technology research team succeeded in developing an anode-free lithium battery. The design maximized energy density and improved energy density by 40%. The Pohang University of Science & Technology (POSTECH) research team led by Professor Soojin Park and PhD candidate Sungjin Cho (Department of Chemistry) in collaboration with Professor Dong-Hwa […]

Sandia National Laboratories’ new study tackled a long-held assumption that adding some liquid electrolyte to improve performance would make solid-state batteries unsafe. Instead, the research team found that in many cases solid-state batteries with a little liquid electrolyte were safer than their lithium-ion counterparts. They also found, if the battery were to short-circuit, releasing all […]
