The surface area is a critical property for battery components including anodes, cathodes, and even separator materials. Surface area differences affect performance characteristics such as capacity, ...

BOSTON, Dec. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- An analysis of the materials adopted in li-ion batteries quantifies the change of cathode and anode materials used over the coming decade, with the increase of ...

Redox flow batteries that incorporate solid energy-storing materials are attractive for high-capacity grid-scale energy storage due to their high theoretical energy densities. However, their practical ...

I n an idealized diode, no reverse current flows from cathode to anode when the device is reverse-biased. However, with real-world diodes, large amounts of stored charge can flow from the cathode—back ...

During the oil crisis of the 1970s, a chemist at Exxon named M. Stanley Whittingham, working on a new type of rechargeable battery, discovered that lithium ions could slip inside the gaps in a layered ...

Could an electric vehicle travel from Seoul to Busan and back on a single charge? Could drivers stop worrying about battery ...

Lithium-ion batteries are what make modern electric vehicles possible. This Engineering Explained video shows how they work, and how they're manufactured. The video is sponsored by LG Energy Solution, ...

Cathodes play a dominant role in defining cell energy density, and also make up a significant proportion of cell costs, due to the use of high-cost metals such as cobalt, nickel and lithium. Standard ...
