New study could help unlock ‘game-changing’ batteries for electric vehicles and aviation
Wednesday 28 Jun 2023
A study led by University of Oxford researchers has revealed the mechanisms that cause lithium metal solid-state batteries to fail. Researchers used a high-resolution imaging method at the I13-2 beamline of Diamond Light Source to visualise batteries in unprecedented detail during charging.
The new insights could help overcome the technical issues with solid-state batteries, unlocking a game-changing technology for electric vehicles.
