Nano-vault architecture alleviates stress in Si-based anodes for Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

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. GPa) is ascribed to arch action, a well-known civil engineering concept. The resulting maximisation of measured elastic modulus (~120?GPa)

Novel Li-metal electrode design could lead to more powerful solid-state batteries

Green Car Congress

Researchers at MIT and their colleagues are proposing a new design for electrodes that, based on the long-sought goal of using pure lithium metal as the anode, could lead to longer-lived batteries with higher energy densities. We designed this structure that gives us three-dimensional electrodes, like a honeycomb. —Ju Li.

Chalmers team develops graphite-like anode for Na-ion batteries; Janus graphene

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have developed a nanometric graphite-like anode for sodium ion (Na + storage), formed by stacked graphene sheets functionalized only on one side, termed Janus graphene. Na is comparable to graphite for standard lithium ion batteries. —Jinhua Sun, first author.
