Novel Way to Boost the Performance of Solid-State Batteries Written by AZoMMay 21 2021 Although solid-state batteries can pack plenty of energy into a compact space, their electrodes are not that good at making a contact with their electrolytes.

Liquid electrolytes spark energy by reaching all nooks and corners of an electrode, but liquids also tend to take up a lot of space without preserving energy and also fail in due time. Now, scientists have identified a new way to allow solid electrolytes to make contact with electrodes that are composed of strategically arranged materials at the atomic level and the outcomes are supporting the drive toward more improved solid-state battery technologies.
