The manufacturing and disposal of lithium ion batteries is a large and growing source of pollution from a sub-class of "forever chemicals."

A new process can retrieve as much as 50% of the lithium in spent lithium-ion battery cathodes in as little as 30 seconds.

Researchers have developed soft, stretchable ‘jelly batteries’ that could be used for wearable devices or soft robotics, or even implanted in the brain to

Nyobolt, a University of Cambridge spin-out company, has demonstrated its ultra-fast charging batteries in an electric sportscar prototype, going from 10% to

Fracking wastewater could be a new source of lithium, a key ingredient in batteries for everything from smartphones and electric cars.

To model the inside of a supercapacitor, my team had to rework a common physics law that most high school students learn.

The grants fund studies of green hydrogen production, fetal health-sensing fabric, basalt architecture, and shark-based ocean monitoring.

The energy density of supercapacitors – battery-like devices that can charge in seconds or a few minutes – can be improved by increasing the ‘messiness’ of

Researchers used a robotic lab to mix unconventional ingredients in just the right order to make complex materials for batteries.

The reason batteries come in so many types has as much to do with history as innovation.
