Contact UsA multi-institutional research team led by Georgia Tech's Hailong Chen has developed a new, low-cost cathode that could radically improve lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) — potentially transforming the electric vehicle (EV) market and large-scale energy storage systems.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been powering portable electronic devices and electric vehicles for over three decades. However, growing concerns regarding the limited availability of lithium resources and the subsequent surge in costs have prompted the exploration of alternative energy storage systems beyond LIBs.
4. Cathode materials The positive electrode, known as the cathode, in a cell is associated with reductive chemical reactions. This cathode material serves as the primary and active source of most of the lithium ions in Li-ion battery chemistries (Tetteh, 2023).
Lithium layered cathode materials, such as LCO, LMO, LFP, NCA, and NMC, find application in Li-ion batteries. Among these, LCO, LMO, and LFP are the most widely employed cathode materials, along with various other lithium-layered metal oxides (Heidari and Mahdavi, 2019, Zhang et al., 2014).
Cathode materials affect capacity, energy, and efficiency, playing a major role in a battery's performance, lifespan, and affordability. “Our cathode can be a game-changer,” said Chen, whose team describes its work in Nature Sustainability. “It would greatly improve the EV market — and the whole lithium-ion battery market.”
Technology for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is developing rapidly, which is essential to modern devices and renewable energy sources. The latest development focuses on the optimization of cathode materials, which is critical in determining battery performance and durability.
