Lithium dendrites pose a significant challenge to the development of high-energy Li metal batteries. They can fracture solid-state electrolytes, compromising device safety and performance. Therefore, ...

They published their work on Sep. 12 in Energy Material Advances. "The great electrochemical phase-field simulation efforts devoted to exploring the dendrite growth mechanism under the temperature ...

Lithium metal anodes are considered highly promising as anode materials for lithium-based batteries. However, the unavoidable growth of dendrites on the lithium anode leads to issues in advancing the ...

All-solid-state batteries are emerging energy storage solutions in which flammable liquid electrolytes are substituted by solid materials that conduct lithium ions. In addition to being safer than ...

They are considered the 'Holy Grail' of battery research: so-called 'solid-state batteries'. They no longer have a liquid core, as is the case with today's batteries, but consist of a solid material.

In a recent article published in Small, researchers designed a 3D nanosheet structure of ZnO/Zn(OH) 2 on copper foil, which aimed to significantly enlarge the active surface area and increase the ...

A recent article in Nature Communications employed optical and ex-situ dark-field X-ray microscopy (DFXM) to examine the interplay between dendrite proliferation and dislocation formation in ...
