A joint research team from Tohoku University and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has made a significant advance towards high-voltage metal-free lithium-ion batteries by using a small organic molecule: croconic acid. Most reported organic batteries to date, however, possess a relatively low (1-3V) working voltage.
