Lithium-ion batteries are typically closed systems that react when exposed to air ... different battery chemistries, such as replacing the transition metals used in cathodes with organic materials ...

Researchers at Cambridge University demonstrated their latest version of what is being called the Lithium-Air battery. It can be more accurately referred to as a Lithium-Oxygen but Air sounds cooler.

The system combines a multi-junction organic ... The battery has a cathode-active material based on phenothiazine conjugated redox polymer and an anode material based on lithium metal.

Researchers have developed a new lithium-air battery that can store up to four ... a cathode based on organic materials. The organic material is stabilized thanks to the chemistry that helps ...

Scientists are working diligently to improve the next generation of battery technology, and they have already made some notable breakthroughs.
