Introducing a groundbreaking advancement in lithium metal anode technology, Stanford researchers have developed an innovation that leverages a flower-like nanostructured hard carbon host (CF) to unlock the full potential of lithium metal.
Stanford researchers have demonstrated a self healing electrode that can dramatically enhance the cycle lifetime of lithium ion batteries by applying Si microparticles with a thin layer of self-healing conductive composite.
Stanford researchers at the Cui Lab have adopted for the first time, a 3D porous lithium (Li) metal anode and flowable interphase to construct an all-solid-state Li metal battery.
Stanford researchers led by Profs. Yi Cui and Steven Chu have demonstrated that interfacial layer of hollow carbon nanospheres allows stable lithium metal anode cycling up to a practical current density of 1 mA cm-2.
Stanford researchers developed a 'self-healing' polymer coating that conforms to and stabilizes lithium metal battery electrodes. The polymer is an extremely stretchy, flexible and adaptive protective layer.
Rechargeable lithium sulfur batteries have attracted great interest in recent years because of their high theoretical specific energy, which is several times that of current lithium-ion batteries.
