Lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) are rechargeable batteries that contain an anode (i.e., the electrode through which current flows and a loss of electrons occurs) made of lithium metal. Compared to ...

Global demand for lithium is climbing faster than new mines can open, raising fears that battery supply could bottleneck the ...

Batteries used in smartphones or in EVs normally charge for 10 hours on their first cycle, but turbo-charging them to 100% capacity in 20 minutes may lead to a 50% longer lifespan. When you purchase ...

The solid electrolyte interface (SEI) in lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries is essential for calculating a battery’s capacity and longevity. The SEI works dynamically across multiple charge cycles, and ...

Scientists have found that a thin silver coating can strengthen solid-state lithium batteries, helping prevent cracks and ...
