High-energy nickel (Ni)–rich cathode will play a key role in advanced lithium (Li)–ion batteries, but it suffers from moisture sensitivity, side reactions, and gas generation. We observe reversible planar gliding and microcracking along the (003) plane in a single-crystalline Ni-rich cathode. —Bi et al.

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have improved their recycling process that regenerates degraded cathodes from spent lithium-ion batteries. This work presents a solution to reclaim the values of end-of-life lithium-ion batteries after 5 to 10 years of operation. Image courtesy of Advanced Energy Materials/Chen lab.

Cycling performance of Li/SeS 2 ?C, Researchers at Argonne National Laboratory have developed selenium and selenium–sulfur (Se x S y )-based cathode materials for a new class of room-temperature lithium and sodium batteries. Unlike the widely studied Li/S system, both Se and Se x S y can be cycled to high voltages (up to 4.6
