The battery in your next device could do more than power it- it could clean the air. In a breakthrough that could reshape ...

Cutting weight in cars, planes, and gadgets boosts how efficiently they use energy. Traditional lithium-ion batteries, though ...

Batteries are becoming more and more powerful. A discovery by researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research in ...

for example—the energy density is roughly one-tenth that of a traditional lithium-ion battery. However, future improvements via electrolyte chemistry and electrode structure could eventually ...

lithium-ion and a host of other battery types alongside each other. For one of the up-and-coming types in the form of sodium (Na)-based batteries the same struggles are true as it attempts to hit ...

A team partially replaced lithium in a lithium antimonide compound with the metal scandium. This creates specific gaps, so-called vacancies, in the crystal lattice of the conductor material. These ...
