Tag: Neware battery testing system

Researchers from Florida State University and Cornell University found that batteries constructed out of inexpensive and safe components can deliver three to four times the punch of batteries made with state-of-the-art lithium-ion technology. The researchers’ work is published in Nature Communications. A. Nijamudheen, a postdoctoral researcher at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering, and Snehashis Choudhury, a doctoral student at Cornell University, along with faculty members

MIT Researchers have devised a new pulsed laser deposition technique to produce thinner lithium electrolytes using less heat. According to the researchers, the use of thinner lithium electrolytes could allow faster charging and might lead to higher-voltage solid-state lithium-ion batteries. Key to the new processing technique for the solid-state battery electrolyte is alternating layers of the active electrolyte lithium garnet component

Finding economical ways to replace the graphite anodes in commercial lithium-ion batteries could lead to lighter batteries that can store more charge. The improved energy density would result from a combination of factors including the lithium-metal anode’s high specific capacity, light weight (low density), and low electrochemical potential. Switching to lithium-metal anodes would greatly extend the range of electric vehicles

ALFREDO ESTRELLAGETTY IMAGES We’ve known for a few years now that solar power is surging in the U.S. and the rest of the world: costs have been falling for a while and countries like the United States, China, and India have been building so many solar panels that solar was the world’s fastest growing energy source in 2016. But thanks to a recently-published report

Researchers have devised a more efficient, more reliable potassium-oxygen battery, a step toward a potential solution for energy storage for the grid. In a study published in the April issue of the journal Batteries and Supercaps, researchers from Ohio State University detailed their findings related to the construction of a potassium-oxygen battery’s cathode.  (See image above of Paul Gilmore and Vishnu-Baba Sundaresan). The findings,

Lithium batteries are currently the dominant rechargeable battery in the market due to their relatively high energy density and long cycle life. However, the conventional heavy and bulky lithium battery is difficult to use in wearable devices. Researchers at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) have created a highly flexible, high-energy textile lithium battery. (See image above of Professor Zheng Zijian holding
