Introduction: Lithium-ion technology has transformed the way we communicate and power portable devices, and is now driving a revolution in global transportation and energy supply. A new paper by Arumugam Manthiram of the University of Texas at Austin examines the development of the technology, from initial discoveries in the 1970s to the considerations of researchers working on “future batteries“today. Since scientists demonstrated the first rechargeable lithium-ion battery in 1976, the technology has demonstrated its world-changing potential in the electronics industry. But even as applications in electric vehicles and stationary energy storage record massive growth, overcoming technical problems and scientists around the world are working to incorporate new materials and advance battery performance […]
