Longer-lasting, more efficient batteries would be a boost for everything from smartphones to electric vehicles, and scientists have now made an unexpected discovery that could help develop next-gen battery tech, as well as faster catalysts and other advanced materials.
An analysis of the very earliest stages of lithium battery charging known as nucleation has shown that slowing electrical currents near the electrode creates disorganised patterns of atoms, which in turn improves the overall char…
