Replacing chemicals in li-ion battery with O2 enhances storage capacity 10x
In lithium-ion tech of today energy storage is limited by the lithium cobalt oxide electrode. These researchers have tried to replace it with a porous carbon electrode that lets lithium ions to react with oxygen drawn from the air during discharge. The replacement not only reduces the weight of the setup but allows a 10x increase in storage capacity.
