Abstract:Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in portable electronic devices such as cellular phones and personal computers. Increasingly they are also being scaled up for using large applications in electric vehicles and smart grids. However, due to limited capacity in both cathodes and anodes, the specific energy density of lithium-ion batteries needs to improve remarkably to meet the requirements for practical applications. Current cathode materials have an actual capacity less than half that o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
