Solid-State Batteries

Solid-state batteries are a type of energy storage device that utilizes solid electrodes and a solid electrolyte to store and release electrical energy. Unlike conventional lithium-ion batteries, which use liquid or gel electrolytes, solid-state batteries employ a solid material as the medium through which ions move during the charging and discharging processes. This technology aims to enhance battery performance by improving safety, energy density, and longevity while reducing risks associated with flammability and leakage of electrolytes. Solid-state batteries are considered a promising advancement in battery technology, particularly for applications in electric vehicles and portable electronics, due to their potential for higher energy capacity and faster charging times.
