lithium ion batteries

Lithium-based battery could make use of greenhouse gas before it ever gets into the atmosphere

With the ever-increasing demand for electric cars, the need for reliable rechargeable batteries is rising dramatically

Researchers applied a technique using 3-D X-ray tomography of an electrode to better understand what is happening on the inside of a lithium ion battery

Scientists have  produced a new design for a beyond-lithium-ion battery cell that operates by running on air (hence, referred to as “lithium-air”) over many charge and discharge cycles

The chemical pathways by which these reactions take place help determine how quickly a battery becomes depleted

Recent research findings could aid engineers in developing technology suited to withstand the coldest reaches of outer space or the most frigid regions on Earth

Researchers and manufacturers have long sought a way to replace graphite with silicon as the default choice of active material for anodes in lithium-ion batteries 

Scientists have observed how lithium moves inside individual nanoparticles that make up batteries. The finding could help companies develop batteries that charge faster and last longer

Electric car makers are intensely interested in lithium-rich battery cathodes that could significantly increase driving range. A new study opens a path to making them live up to their promise

Researchers find the most effective way to understand the electrochemical reactions of lithium-ion batteries and to learn how the batteries can be modified to become safer, stronger, longer-lasting, and cheaper
