A fully graphite-free silicon anode has shown stable performance at high temperatures, potentially paving the way for wider applications.

Conventional batteries have anodes and cathodes, but a new design from the University of Chicago and the University of California San Diego lacks an anode. While this has been done before, according ...

Lithium-metal anode-free batteries promise higher energy density and longevity, but their biggest problem is the dendrites that form inside the battery and ruin it. QuantumScape claims it solved this ...

Tesla 4680s have had slower ramping because of problems with the Cathode needing a wet process and cathodes made by other companies. Auto experts Munro Associates have taken apart a cybertruck and ...

IDTechEx Technology Analyst Daniel Parr concludes, "Demand for LFP and LMFP is forecast to reach 2683 GWh by 2036, while demand for high and ultra-high nickel NMC/NCA/NMCA will reach 2207 GWh." ...

A lithium-ion battery may have fewer parts than a combustion engine, but it's no less complex. It involves an intricate interplay of materials that influences an electric vehicle’s range, charging ...

In 2020, Tesla announced a breakthrough battery that would be much cheaper to produce while offering higher energy density thanks to new technologies like dry cathode coating and silicone anode.

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Every consumer battery that exists has little plus and minus signs on the outer labeling. These mark the ending and starting points for the ...

The race is on to generate new technologies to ready the battery industry for the transition toward a future with more renewable energy. In this competitive landscape, it’s hard to say which companies ...

IN THEir QUEST to build a better battery, researchers have blazed a trail through the elements of the periodic table. The earliest prototype cells ran on nickel and cadmium; successors have used ...

Research on 'FeSn2 anode material for SSBs' by a team from KERI, Kumoh National Institute of Technology, and Inha University has been published as the cover article in the October issue of Joule, a ...

Battery start-up QuantumScape believes ditching the anode can unlock big improvements in EVs, but challenges persist. A lithium-ion battery may have fewer parts than a combustion engine, but it's no ...
