Nanotechnology allows self-assembling lithium-ion batteries

digg_url = 'http://digg.com/tech_news/Nanotechnology_allows_self_assembling_lithium_ion_batteries'; One of the hurdles that automakers (GM) claim is holding back the development of electric cars is battery technology and cost. Wouldn't it be nice if you could just dump materials into a bucket, shake it up and get lithium-ion batteries? It would, and that is kinda what researchers at MIT are doing. "Ultimately, the goal is just to chuck a bunch of stuff into a bucket and have it self-assemble into a battery," says Jeff Dahn, professor of ... Read more →
