Who Really Invented the Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery?

Cars That Think

Fifty years after the birth of the rechargeable lithium-ion battery, it’s easy to see its value. By Christmas, he had developed a battery with a titanium-disulfide cathode and a liquid electrolyte that used lithium ions. Here, the story of the lithium-ion battery’s journey to commercialization gets hazy.

ANL researchers report photo-excitation can speed up Li-ion charging by factor of two

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have reported that a new photo-excitation mechanism can speed up the charging of lithium-ion batteries by a factor of two or more. A serious limitation [of lithium-ion batteries], however, is the slow charging rate used to obtain the full capacity.
