A research team affiliated with UNIST has demonstrated a simple yet effective method to extend the lifespan of all-solid-state batteries—by simply stretching film-shaped electrolytes to improve safety ...

Scientists create a stretchable solid-state battery, paving way towards safer electric vehicle batteries and flexible electronics.

Researchers at the University of Hong Kong have discovered a series of anionic network solid electrolytes that can deliver at least a fourfold improvement in cationic transport for lithium-metal ...

The pursuit of high energy density and sustainable energy storage devices has been the target of many researchers. However, ...

Electrochemical processes in devices like solar cells, fuel cells, lithium batteries, and water desalination systems rely on the safe, efficient, and robust transport of anions and cations between ...

Solid polymer electrolytes formed in situ via covalent organic framework-induced ring-opening copolymerization. Solid polymer electrolytes with a high lithium-ion transference number and desirable ...

When you think of a battery, you probably don’t think stretchy. But batteries will need this shape-shifting quality to be incorporated into flexible electronics, which are gaining traction for ...

A recent article in Nature Communications introduced a bioinspired gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) designed for high-energy-density lithium metal batteries that can operate reliably across a wide ...

Taking flight can be stressful -- especially for a lithium-ion battery that powers a drone. Too much strain on these cells causes damage and shortens a device's overall lifespan. Research shows the ...

Scientists develop positive electrode material using an organic redox polymer based on phenothiazine. Aluminium-ion batteries containing this material stored an unprecedented 167 milliampere hours per ...
