Fast-Charging Lithium Battery Seeks To Eliminate 'Range Anxiety'

23 Jan 2024 | Abstracted from Techxplore

"A team in Cornell Engineering has created a new lithium battery that can charge in under five minutes - faster than any such battery on the market - while maintaining stable performance over extended cycles of charging and discharging.

"Identifying battery electrode materials with inherently fast solid-state transport rates, and hence low Damkohler numbers, helped the researchers pinpoint indium as an exceptionally promising material for fast-charging batteries."
