1. The National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), SoftBank Corp. and Ohara Inc. jointly identified the detailed mechanisms behind the degradation of high-energy-density lithium–oxygen batteries.

Peter earned a Bachelor of Archeology and Creative Writing from the University of Alabama and has since joined his love of driving and riding with storytelling. His voice is full of southern ...

The development of aprotic lithium-oxygen (Li-O 2) batteries with ultra-high theoretical specific energies has been severely hindered by sluggish reaction kinetics and undesired parasitic reactions.

A research team develops manganese-based cathodes with longer lifespan by suppressing oxygen release. A research team led by Professor Jihyun Hong from the Department of Battery Engineering Department ...

Current lithium batteries are based on intercalation—lithium ions squeeze into spaces within electrode materials such as graphite. As a result, most of the battery’s volume and bulk is dedicated to ...

The performance of lithium-ion batteries fades over time, but the underlying causes are not fully understood. Analysis of lithium- and manganese-rich cathodes now reveals how the lattice of atoms in ...

Recently, a research team led by Prof. Zhao Bangchuan from the Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Prof. Xiao Yao ...
