Researchers have moved one step closer to making solid-state batteries from lithium and sulfur a practical reality. A team led by engineers at the University of California San Diego developed a new ...

Lithium-sulfur batteries can suffer from decreased life cycle and energy efficiency. Researchers at Argonne National Laboratory examined possible solutions for these issues. In theory, lithium-sulfur ...

A new “healable” material could lead to a battery revolution, the engineers behind it say. Scientists have long been hoping to create solid-state batteries out of lithium and suphur. Such technology ...

The new cathode material is a crystal composed of sulfur and iodine. The cathode material has a low melting point of 65 Celsius, enabling self-healing of damaged interfaces. A test battery constructed ...

Researchers have made progress toward realizing solid-state batteries made of sulfur and lithium. A team of engineers at the University of California, San Diego, created a novel cathode material for ...

The general formula for ternary carbides is Mn+1AXn, where n = 1,2,3, M is a transition metal such as Cr, V, Ti, Sc, etc., A is an element such as aluminum or silicon, and X is either carbon or ...

Engineers developed a cathode material for lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries that is healable and highly conductive, overcoming longstanding challenges of traditional sulfur cathodes. The advance holds ...
