New research by Brown University engineers identifies a simple strategy for combating a major stumbling block in the development of next-generation solid-state lithium batteries.

In a recent study published in Small, researchers introduced a three-dimensional, freestanding porous carbon nanofiber (PCNF) structure embedded with silicon oxide (SiOx), designed to address critical ...

While lithium-ion batteries have become a global standard, the need for batteries with a higher energy densities is prompting more research into other promising battery architectures―one of which is ...

Korean researchers have ushered in a new era for electric vehicle (EV) battery technology by solving the long-standing dendrite problem in lithium-metal batteries. While conventional lithium-ion ...

Solid-state batteries offer many advantages over their counterparts that use liquid electrolytes. They are inherently safe, thanks to the fact that the electrolyte is not flammable, and they can store ...

Lithium-ion batteries are used not only for small consumer electronics like cell phones and laptops, but also electric bicycles, electric vehicles, and long-term power storage. Though rare, ...

They published their work on Sep. 12 in Energy Material Advances. "The great electrochemical phase-field simulation efforts devoted to exploring the dendrite growth mechanism under the temperature ...

The ongoing electrification of everyday items has resulted in the proliferation of batteries, and spurred continued development for automotive and grid use. Lithium-ion batteries still dominate the ...

A recent article published in the Journal of Magnesium and Alloys proposed highly lipophilic Mg-Li-Cu alloys, prepared via a simple and controlled method, for stabilizing Li metal anodes. These ...
