"Harvard's Game-Changing Solid State Battery Charges in Minutes and Lasts for Decades"

Harvard University researchers have developed a new solid-state battery that can be recharged in 10 minutes and can be charged and discharged at least 6,000 times, outperforming other pouch cell batteries. The battery uses micron-sized silicon particles in the anode to prevent the formation of dendrites, allowing for quick plating and stripping and enabling fast recharging. The technology has been licensed to Adden Energy, a Harvard spinoff company, and could be a game-changer for electric vehicles if mass-produced at a lower price than lithium-ion batteries.

"Revolutionary Solid-State Lithium Battery Lasts 6000 Cycles and Charges in Minutes"

Researchers at Harvard's John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences have developed a new solid state lithium metal battery that can be charged and discharged at least 6,000 times, lasting over 16 years of daily cycles. The battery, published in Nature Materials, uses micron-sized silicon particles in the anode to prevent dendrite formation, allowing for quick recharging in about 10 minutes. The technology has been licensed to Adden Energy, a Harvard spinoff company, and offers potential for new materials in battery design. While this advancement may not significantly reduce costs, it could help sustain the momentum of electrification in the market.

"Rapid-Charging Solid State Battery Revolutionizes Energy Storage"

Researchers from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences have developed a new lithium metal battery that can be charged and discharged at least 6,000 times, lasting for thousands of cycles and recharging in minutes. The battery design utilizes micron-sized silicon particles in the anode to constrict the lithiation reaction and facilitate homogeneous plating of a thick layer of lithium metal, preventing the formation of dendrites. This breakthrough offers new understanding into the materials used for solid state batteries and paves the way for more practical applications in industrial and commercial settings.
