Goodenough , one of the inventors of the lithium-ion battery, died on 25 June at age 100. He and his colleagues were recently granted a U.S. He probably is best known for developing the lithium cobalt oxide cathode in 1980—which became the foundation for Sony’s first commercial lithium-ion battery in 1991.

Dendritic growth of lithium (Li) on lithium metal anodes has hobbled the practical application of Li-metal batteries, despite their theoretical benefits such as high capacity and low redox potential. This delayed Li transfer eliminates the “tip effect” leading to a more homogeneous Li nucleation. —Foroozan et al. Resources.

Researchers have developed a new high-performance anode structure for lithium-ion batteries based on silicon-carbon nanocomposite materials. Produced via large-scale hierarchical bottom-up assembly, the material contains rigid and robust silicon spheres with irregular channels for rapid access of Li ions into the particle bulk.
