SOLID-STATE BATTERIES

More pressure needed

Nature Energy volume 4, pages 827–828 (2019)Cite this article

Subjects

In the development of Li metal solid-state batteries, understanding the mechanism that governs fundamental processes such as Li stripping and plating is pivotal. Now, researchers uncover a pressure dependence on Li stripping and higher pressures are suggested for faster discharging.
