Solar powered lithium-ion battery incorporating high performing electrode materials

Abstract

The development of portable electronic communities requires high performing and high power lithium rechargeable batteries. Herein, we explore a new lithium ion battery combined with a new carbon based anode and cobalt based cathode which delivers an energy output of 280 Wh kg−1 and cycling efficiency of 97% over the investigated 500 cycles (1 C rate) of the lithium ion cell.
