Much higher energy density, but don't expect to see one in your laptop soon.

Clean energy researchers have designed a molecule to boost the performance of lithium-oxygen batteries to give electric vehicles the same driving range as petrol-fueled cars. Lithium-oxygen batteries are aimed to deliver maximum energy density through breathing air to generate electricity. To date, they have been beset by challenges, including low discharge capacity, poor energy efficiency and severe parasitic…

We'll see about that.

Lithium batteries are in the news constantly. But lithium has plenty of other uses. It's a drug for bipolar disorder. It used to be put in soda for hangovers, and it saved the lives of the Apollo 13 astronauts. A little about lithium - a fascinating element.

Clare Grey, Royal Society Research Professor and the Geoffrey Moorhouse-Gibson Professor of Chemistry at Cambridge University, delivered the 2024 Dresselhaus Lecture at MIT on understanding battery function.

Two Chicago-area institutions teamed up to develop a solid-state battery that packs a huge energy punch—one that could eventually even power airplanes.

A new lithium-air battery could one day replace the lithium-ion battery and power cars, domestic airplanes and long-haul trucks.

Many owners of electric cars have wished for a battery pack that could power their vehicle for more than a thousand miles on a single charge. Researchers at the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) and U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have developed a lithium-air battery that could make that dream a reality. The team's new battery design could also one day power domestic airplanes and…

A new paper published in Science describes the chemistry behind a novel lithium-air battery, an innovative design which could potentially provide way more energy density than traditional...

In the lab at least, its materials are stable for over 1,000 cycles.

With a high energy density, Li-O2 batteries have become a state-of-the-art battery technology. Inside the Li-O2 battery, the generation and disintegration of the discharged product solid lithium peroxide (Li2O2) have a significant effect on the battery's performance. Previous research has shed little light on Li2O2 's form and distribution inside, leaving questions regarding the trend and contributing factor of…

BMW and Toyota teamed up to advance hydrogen fuel cell technology, blending expertise to create sustainable, high-performance vehicles.

"A new era of universal electrification of sea, land and air transportation." CATL announces new battery that doubles energy intensity.

New battery developed by researchers in US could provide "thousand mile" range for EVs and open up new possibilities for long-haul transport and electric planes.

In work that could usher in more efficient, eco-friendly processes for the production of important metals like lithium, iron and cobalt, researchers from MIT and SLAC have mapped what is happening at the atomic level behind a particularly promising approach called metal electrolysis.

A research team from MIT, Harvard, and Cornell University has discovered means to isolate and study a molecule responsible for electrolyte and cell degradation in lithium-air batteries, using quinone as a physical encapsulation barrier.
