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. Thus, the whole solid battery can remain mechanically and chemically stable as it goes through its cycles of use.
