Researchers Use NMR Spectroscopy to Observe Dendrite Formation on Li Metal Anodes

Green Car Congress

An international team of researchers from Stony Brook University (US); CSIRO (Australia); and University of Cambridge (UK) have developed a method to use in situ NMR spectroscopy to provide time-resolved, quantitative information about the nature of the metallic lithium deposited on lithium-metal anodes—i.e., dendrite formation.

Li-ion Reserve in the World: How it Revolutionised the EV Industry

Get Electric Vehicle

Lithium-Ion Batteries: The Game Changer. The Roadster used three-phase, four-pole AC induction motors and was the first to install lithium-ion batteries in a production car and the first to demonstrate a 200-mile driving range. Tesla and other modern electric cars (except a few) owe lithium-ion batteries to their success.
