Applying high stack pressure is primarily done to address the mechanical failure issue of solid-state batteries. Here, the authors propose a mechanical optimization strategy involving elastic ...

Silicon negative electrode in all-solid-state batteries can lose electrical contact at low stack pressure, reducing performance. Here, the authors introduce a conductive, water-processable polymer ...

Writer and occasional reluctant perpetrator of engine swaps, James O'Neil is a malaise era enthusiast and also fascinated by the many ways the auto industry has since recovered from those dark days.

We’ve been hearing all about how solid-state batteries are coming soon, but now it looks like automakers are ready to put the latest battery tech into action. It seems like we’ve been hearing about ...

This week already brought us a camper loaded with solid-state battery power, and now we have a luxury EV putting its own solidified energy storage to work. BMW is road-testing solid-state batteries in ...

Imagine an electric vehicle that charges in minutes, travels hundreds of miles on a single charge, and eliminates the risk of battery fires. This is the promise of solid-state batteries, a technology ...

Researchers have discovered that the mixing of small particles between two solid electrolytes can generate an effect called a 'space charge layer,' an accumulation of electric charge at the interface ...

BMW partners with Solid Power and Samsung SDI to bring next-gen solid-state batteries to road-test vehicles, accelerating EV battery innovation. BMW, Solid Power, and Samsung SDI partner to develop ...

The automotive industry is on the brink of a revolutionary shift with the advent of solid-state battery technology. As electric vehicles (EVs) continue to gain traction, solid-state batteries promise ...

Penn State researchers developed a low-temperature (150°C) method to produce solid-state battery electrolytes. Solid-state batteries offer greater energy density, safety, and charging speed, but have ...
