New research conducted by the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) has identified a specific building block that improves the anode in lithium-ion batteries. But in graphite anodes, six atoms of carbon are needed to store one lithium ion, so the energy density of these batteries is low.
