Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries hold promise for bringing more energy dense and low-cost batteries closer to market. University of California – San Diego engineers have developed an advanced cathode material for lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries that is healable and highly conductive, overcoming longstanding challenges of traditional sulfur cathodes. These improvements overcome the limitations of lithium-sulfur batteries’ […]

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 […]

The Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research has reported important progress. The team’s research paper has been published in the journal Nature Communications. Solid-state batteries no longer have a liquid core, as is the case with today’s batteries, but consist […]

This is a major steppingstone towards realization of commercial all-solid-state batteries. Solid-state battery‘s high surface resistance causes these batteries to have low output, limiting their applications. The researchers have employed a novel […]

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Tokyo University of Science (TUS) researchers have demonstrated a metal-organic framework-based magnesium ion conductor showing superionic conductivity even at room temperature. Magnesium is a promising material for such solid-state batteries owing to its abundance, but its practical application is limited by the poor conductivity of magnesium ions (Mg2+) in solids at room temperature. The […]
