Lithium-ion batteries can become unstable under certain conditions, leading to fires. Now, researchers have used new materials that they say can make batteries safer.

Scientists unveil a solid electrolyte that moves lithium as fast as liquids, promising safer, fast-charging batteries.

The emission of carbon dioxide (CO₂) is one of the primary factors contributing to air pollution and climate change on Earth.

A hidden layer may unlock long-lasting solid-state batteries, boosting cycle life and stability after thousands of charges.

As the push for higher-energy lithium-ion batteries accelerates, developing electrolytes that remain stable at high voltages has become critical.
