Silicon is an attractive negative electrode (anode) material for future lithium-ion batteries because it can store much more ...

Solid-state batteries could store more energy and charge faster than today’s batteries, but they tend to crack and fail over ...

Firefighters and safety managers now face fires that may not respond to traditional suppression. This lack of clarity has ...

Recent research published in Science introduces a promising solid electrolyte material that could improve the performance of ...

Materials science ain’t easy. And it’s especially difficult when it comes to the batteries that power our smart home, wearable, and mobile devices; more specifically, lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries.

A solid—rather than liquid—electrolyte between the opposite electrodes of a battery should, in theory, enable a rechargeable ...

A group of scientists from ANSTO, under the leadership of Professor Vanessa Peterson, employed neutron scattering techniques to investigate the development of problematic lithium structures in ...

"Investigators are going more often to fires and finding that lithium-ion batteries have been on an uptick, causing more ...

The EV industry appears to be stagnant these days, but under the surface, battery and EV tech development still advances at a ...
