What we were able to see for the first time is that lithium peroxide develops in the liquid electrolyte of lithium-oxygen batteries, and is a contributor to the slow down and ultimate death of these batteries. Lithium-oxygen batteries have been tantalizing to battery researchers for years because of their potential high energy density.

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.

Electrochemical research has already informed the development and improvement of innovative batteries, electrocatalysts, photovoltaics and fuel cells. Areas of particular interest include: Post-lithium ion batteries (including all-solid, air cathode, high-power aqueous, flow-based, lithium metal protection, and non-Li based systems).

As she drives her electric vehicle to her mother’s house, Monique’s battery gauge indicates that it’s time to reenergize. The battery in her EV is a variation on the flow battery , a design in which spent electrolyte is replaced rather than recharged. A battery that mitigates these problems is DARPA’s objective.
