A new electrode material could make it possible to construct lithium-ion batteries with a high charging rate and storage capacity. If scaled up, the anode material developed by researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) and colleagues in the US might be used to manufacture batteries with an energy density of more than 350 Watt-hours per kilogram – enough for a typical electric vehicle (EV) to travel 600 miles on a single charge.
