Lithium-metal battery could boost gadget power |
July 29, 2014
Researchers at Stanford University have made progress toward designing a battery with a lithium anode, a development that could increase battery power in electronics.Reporting in the journal Nature Nanotechnology, the researchers described how they designed a lithium-metal anode in order to boost the energy storage density.The anode of a battery discharges electrons into the current cycle. In a regular lithium-ion battery, it is usually made of graphite or silicon.Lithium is known for its high energy density and lightweight properties, but it has proven problematic in battery research.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
