The Benefits of Sustainable and Powerful Solid-State Lithium-Sulfur Batteries

11 Mar 2024 | Abstracted from Azom

"A team of engineers at the University of California, San Diego, created a novel cathode material for solid-state lithium-sulfur batteries that is electrically conductive and structurally healable, overcoming the limits of these batteries' present cathodes.

"Sulfur is not only a poor electron conductor, but during charging and discharging, sulfur cathodes expand and contract significantly, causing structural damage."
