Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have achieved a breakthrough on the path to practical application of lithium ...

It has taken years of toiling away in their labs, but developers of lithium-ion batteries made with solid electrolytes—known as solid-state batteries or SSBs—are moving toward commercialization of the ...

MIT researchers have made a new discovery that could pave the way for solid-state lithium battery development. Solid-state lithium batteries could offer a lightweight, compact, and safe alternative to ...

They published their work on Feb. 2 in Energy Material Advances. "The development of thin sulfide solid electrolyte layers is imperative" said paper author Xiayin Yao, a professor at the Laboratory of ...

Conventional lithium-ion batteries may have sown the seeds for our transition to electric mobility, but they have certain shortcomings. They’re flammable, their range is still limited, and they’re not ...

Lithium may be the key component in most modern batteries, but it doesn’t make up the bulk of the material used in them. Instead, much of the material is in the electrodes, where the lithium gets ...

The world of the internal combustion engine will sadly, but very necessarily, come to a close at some point in many of our lifetimes. Hybrids and electric vehicles are becoming more affordable and ...

Researchers have designed a stable, lithium-metal solid state battery that can be charged and discharged at least 10,000 times -- far more cycles than have been previously demonstrated --- at a high ...
