Battery Materials Today
Lithium-ion Batteries
The lithium-ion battery presents clear fundamental technology advantages when compared to alternative battery chemistries. Decades of research have led its development it into the high energy density, high cycle life, high efficiency energy storage technology that it is today. Nevertheless, research and development continues on new electrode materials to push the boundaries of cost, energy density, power density, cycle life, and safety.
