A research group has revealed fundamental insights into anode-free solid-state batteries, paving the way for efforts to improve their manufacturability.

Conventional batteries have anodes and cathodes, but a new design from the University of Chicago and the University of California San Diego lacks an anode. While this has been done before ...

Conventionally, batteries feature two electrodes — one positive (commonly called the cathode) and one negative (the anode). Each electrode is paired with a thin metal foil called a current collector ...

The chemistry includes special cathodes and anodes and a new type of electrolyte that protects them both. There's no one-size-fits-all solution for electric vehicle batteries. Battery sizes differ ...

Silicon anodes are further ahead in development and commercialization than solid-state batteries. Battery makers are aiming to increase silicon content to boost driving range and reduce charging ...
