Asymmetric ether solvents enhance Li-metal battery charging and stability.

Design of asymmetric solvent molecule for high-rate performance Li-metTo drive future advancements in electronics, engineers must develop batteries that charge faster, store more energy, and last longer. Lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) stand out as a promising alternative to conventional lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, which currently dominate the market.LMBs feature a lithium metal anode, unlike Li-ion batteries...

Cold Weather can Restrict EV Range and Create Charging Challenges

Credit: DepositphotosElectric-vehicle owners across a wide region, from Chicago to northern Texas, have experienced a challenging week due to freezing temperatures, resulting in decreased driving range and prolonged waits at charging stations.In Oak Brook, Illinois, close to Chicago, television reporters discovered Teslas running low on battery while queuing for charging plugs at a Supercharger...
