A new study introduces a simple molecular-engineering strategy that dramatically improves the reversibility of zinc plating ...

Scientists unveil a solid electrolyte that moves lithium as fast as liquids, promising safer, fast-charging batteries.

In our daily lives, lithium-ion batteries have become indispensable. They function only because of a passivation layer that forms during their initial cycle. As researchers found out via simulations, ...

Utilizing lithium metal as the anode in batteries stands out as an intelligent choice due to its superior energy density compared to other materials. Each wedge consists of different constructions of ...

At the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), scientists have successfully used neutron reflectometry to look inside a working solid-state battery and track its electrochemistry ...
