New Nanomaterial Speeds Up Charging by 60 Times

Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) have developed an entirely new type of nanomaterial which can increase the charging speed of small lithium-ion batteries for electric cars, laptop computers, mobile phones, and other devices, by 40-60 times. The new material, called a “nanoscoop” because its shape resembles a cone with a scoop of ice cream […]
