New tin-seeded germanium nanowire array anodes for Li-ion batteries show high capacity and lifetime

Green Car Congress

Researchers at University of Limerick and University College Cork (Ireland) have developed high-performance and high-capacity lithium-ion battery anodes from high-density tin-seeded germanium nanowire arrays grown directly from the current collector. The illustration shows the formation of the porous network over time.
