Researchers at Cambridge University demonstrated their latest version of what is being called the Lithium-Air battery. It can be more accurately referred to as a Lithium-Oxygen but Air sounds coole… ...
A new version of the lithium-oxygen battery could pack more energy and last longer than its predecessors.
Lithium-oxygen, on the other hand, promises 1675mAh/g, a very respectable energy density. Unfortunately, batteries are not simple devices.
A new twist in lithium-oxygen chemistry could lead to better batteries and electric vehicles with far greater range.
The estimated energy densities of lithium-oxygen batteries based on peroxide and oxide are two and four times higher than that of lithium-ion batteries, respectively, but degradation of organic ...
While lithium-oxygen batteries promise much greater energy storage capacity, their shortcoming is an inability to discharge energy as fast as lithium-ion batteries.
A new kind of lithium-oxygen battery developed at MIT, using glass nanoparticles of lithium oxides, could provide more energy, and much better stability and energy efficiency ...
Scientists have created a battery whose technology in principle could power electric cars far better than current batteries.
Boasting an energy density similar to that of gasoline, lithium-air (or lithium-oxygen) batteries may one day prove the panacea for the range-anxiety associated with electric vehicles. But first ...
People have tried pairing lithium-metal electrodes with various materials, while other efforts have tried using electrodes where lithium reacts with air to form lithium-oxygen compounds.
Lithium-air batteries are supposed to lead to lighter, longer-ranged electric cars thanks to their high power-to-weight output, but they have some showstopping flaws: they not only degrade rapidly ...
