Silicon Nanopores Breakthrough Could Boost Lithium-Ion Battery Anode Capacity by 10x
Photo: Jeff Fitlow/Rice University Nanotubes, Nanopores… The Future’s Happening on a Small Scale Last year, I wrote about a battery tech breakthrough by researchers at Stanford and Hanyang University in Ansan, South-Korea. By using silicon nanotubes, they boosted the capacity of a lithium-ion battery’s anode by a factor of about 10. Building on that work, a team of Rice University and Lockheed Martin scientists has done something that similar, but they instead… Read the full story on TreeHugger
