10X more effective smartphone batteries
coming soon
Batteries for smart-
phones and laptops
could soon recharge
10 times faster and
hold up to ten times
as much power, with
new Lithium-Ion bat-
teries that are expec-
ted to hit the markets
as early as three
years.
A
team of scientists at the McCormick School of
Engineering and Applied Science appears to
have cracked one of the thorniest problems
of modern electrical engineering and made batte-
ries using a hi-tech mix of sheets of carbon and
silicon to supercharge today’s lithium-ion Dell Vostro
1520 Laptop Battery.
The technology uses Lithium-Ion batteries, the stan-
dard for current hi-tech appliances, such as smart-
phones, but with a new type of electrode, and could
also make electrical cars far more practical.
“We have found a way to extend a new lithium-ion
battery’s charge life by 10 times. Even after a year
of operation, the Dell inspiron b130 battery is still
five times more effective than li-ion batteries on the
market today,” the Daily Mail quoted Harold Kung,
lead author of the study as saying.
