Found a way to significantly increase the efficiency of lithium-ion batteries

South Korean scientists have developed a new technology that can increase the capacity and efficiency of lithium-ion batteries by several times.
A team of scientists under the guidance of Professor Hyun Taek-WAN of Seoul national University (SNU) used the structure of iron oxide and manganese oxide for the cathode. This gave the opportunity to increase the amount of retained charge lithium-ion batteries.



At the moment the batteries are Li-op quite common when storing energy for the needs of modern electronics. They are especially popular in mobile devices such as smartphones, laptops and cameras. Li-ion accumulatory also used in electric cars.



Previously at the University of Illinois have invented a battery that has been charged 1,000 times faster than their counterparts.
Last week, 18-year-old student from California has introduced a tiny device that is able to fill the battery of mobile phone batteries in just 30 seconds. Commercialization of this research and development will mean a revolution in batteries.
