Electric vehicles have advanced rapidly over the past decade, but battery technology remains the ...

The lithium-ion battery pack sitting under millions of electric vehicles on the road right now may be approaching a shelf ...

A new AI-driven technique spots the telltale Raman signal of liquid-like ion motion—helping scientists rapidly identify ...

Solid-state batteries could be safer and more energy-dense than today’s lithium-ion technology, but finding materials that allow ions to move quickly through solid electrolytes has been difficult.

Some solid materials can cool down or heat up when pressure is applied or released. This behavior enables cooling and heating ...

Researchers developed a stretchable polymer-based solid electrolyte that could enable safer, flexible solid-state batteries ...

Solid-state batteries charge in a fraction of the time, run cooler, and pack more energy into less space than traditional lithium-ion versions. A new review from the University of California, ...

As useful as refrigerators and air conditioners are, the gases they use as refrigerants can leak into the atmosphere and become major contributors to climate change. Now engineers at Harvard have ...
