This video shows a lithium metal wire coated with a layer called SEI and saturated with the surrounding liquid electrolyte; the dashed lines represent the outer edges of this SEI layer. As the ...
(Nanowerk News) A research team led by the University of California San Diego has discovered the root cause of why lithium metal batteries fail—bits of lithium metal deposits break off from the ...
A new study introduces a simple molecular-engineering strategy that dramatically improves the reversibility of zinc plating and stripping in aqueous zinc batteries. By using methylurea as a low-cost ...
Nanoengineered hard-carbon with nanoporous channels and an ultrathin SEI boosts fast, reversible all-slope sodium storage in hard-carbon anodes. (Nanowerk News) A research team from the Hefei ...
