Scientists have synthesized a new cathode material from iron fluoride that surpasses the capacity limits of traditional lithium-ion batteries. As the demand for smartphones, electric vehicles, and ...

"Professor Yushin has identified a novel approach to enable the use of Iron Fluoride cathodes and addresses issues with dimensional changes and parasitic side reactions to develop Lithium ...

Reports revealed that when incorporated into a battery, it’s expected to have 2x more energy density than lithium-ion ...

Lithium-ion batteries based on intercalation compounds have dominated the advanced portable energy storage market. The positive electrode materials in these batteries belong to a material group of ...

HONG KONG, Nov. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Lithium cells became commercially available close to the 1970s and although the technology has seen its fa ...

The fluoride ions used in the new study bear a negative charge (anions), while lithium ions are positive (cations). "For a battery that lasts longer, you need to move a greater number of charges.

When lithium ions are inserted into FeF 3, the material converts to iron and lithium fluoride. However, the reaction is not fully reversible. But after substituting with cobalt and oxygen, however ...
