INL, UCSD Researchers Find Slow, Low-Energy Charging Of Li Batteries Creates Glassy Lithium; High-Performance Li-Metal Batteries

Scientists from Idaho National Laboratory and the University of California San Diego have shown that slow, low-energy charging causes lithium atoms to deposit on electrodes in a disorganized way that improves charging behavior. This noncrystalline, amorphous, “glassy” lithium had never…
