Mapping Performance Variations to See How Lithium-Metal Batteries Fail
Using high-energy x-rays, scientists probed different points across a high-energy-density lithium-metal battery of interest for long-range electric vehicles and used the data to identify the main failure mechanism

UPTON, NY Scientists have identified the primary cause of failure in a state-of-the-art lithium-metal battery, of interest for long-range electric vehicles. Using high-energy x-rays, they followed the cycling-induced changes at thousands of different points across the battery and mapped the variations in performance. At each point, they used the x-ray data
