Researchers find way to boost lithium-air battery performance, with help of modified viruses

Wednesday, November 13, 2013 - 09:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Lithium-air batteries have become a hot research area in recent years: They hold the promise of drastically increasing power per battery weight, which could lead, for example, to electric cars with a much greater driving range. But bringing that promise to reality has faced a number of challenges, including the need to develop better, more durable materials for the batteries' electrodes and improving the number of charging-discharging cycles the batteries can withstand.
