and the cathode portion of the battery and hopes to start producing it later this year.

A battery is made up of an anode on one side and a cathode on the other, with an electrolyte in between.

lithium ions travel from the anode to the cathode through the electrolyte, creating a chemical reaction that allows electrons to be harvested along the way.

An all-carbon battery A battery that uses carbon for both the anode and the cathode could be safer than a lithium ion battery

or cathode, where oxygen molecules pick up extra electrons. These oxygen ions then travel through the membrane to the positively charged anode.

but positively charged hydrogen ions, the opposite way, toward the cathode. But theye never matched the power output of the oxygen conducting SOFCS.

This electricity travels through a circuit and onto cathodes coated with separate microbes that consume that electricity

Batteries have called two electrodes an anode and a cathode. The anodes in most of today's lithium-ion batteries are made of graphite.

#Graphene/nanotube hybrid benefits flexible solar cells Rice university scientists have invented a novel cathode that may make cheap, flexible dye-sensitized solar cells practical.

The Rice lab of materials scientist Jun Lou created the new cathode, one of the two electrodes in batteries,

a return line completes the circuit to the cathode that combines with an iodine-based electrolyte to refresh the dye.

The new cathode's charge-transfer resistance, which determines how well electrons cross from the electrode to the electrolyte,

was found to be 20 times smaller than for platinum-based cathodes, Lou said. The key appears to be the hybrid's huge surface area,

As the battery cycles lithium ions shuttle back and forth between cathode and anode and leave behind detectable tracks of nanoscale damage.

The abundance and environmentally friendly nature of the element sulfur as cathode material are factors in the huge potential of lithium-sulfur batteries.

However, most contributions concerning carbon/sulfur composite cathodes possess a relatively low areal loading of sulfur of less than 2. 0 mg cm-2,

which prevented the full demonstration of the outstanding performance of C/S composite cathodes.""The areal capacity of commercially used lithium-ion batteries is about 4 mah cm-2,

and therefore, the areal loading of sulfur in the cathode of lithium-sulfur batteries needs to be improved greatly,

"The areal capacity can be increased further to 15.1 mah cm-2 by stacking three CNT-S paper electrodes, with an areal sulfur loading of 17.3 mg cm-2 as the cathode in a Li

or cathode and scratched the surface with sandpaper to form a light panel capable of producing a large stable and homogenous emission current with low energy consumption.

The new devices have luminescence systems that function more like cathode ray tubes with carbon nanotubes acting as cathodes

Under a strong electric field the cathode emits tight high-speed beams of electrons through its sharp nanotube tips a phenomenon called field emission.

We have found that a cathode with highly crystalline single-walled carbon nanotubes and an anode with the improved phosphor screen in our diode structure obtained no flicker field emission current and good brightness homogeneity Shimoi said.

Field emission electron sources catch scientists'attention due to its ability to provide intense electron beams that are about a thousand times denser than conventional thermionic cathode (like filaments in an incandescent light bulb.

The resistance of cathode electrode with highly crystalline single-walled carbon nanotube is very low. Thus the new flat-panel device has compared smaller energy loss with other current lighting devices

which can be used to make energy-efficient cathodes that with low power consumption. Many researchers have attempted to construct light sources with carbon nanotubes as field emitter Shimoi said.

#Nanotube cathode beats large pricey laser Scientists are a step closer to building an intense electron beam source without a laser.

Using the High-Brightness Electron Source Lab at DOE's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory a team led by scientist Luigi Faillace of Radiabeam Technologies is testing a carbon nanotube cathode about the size of a nickel

Tests with the nanotube cathode have produced beam currents a thousand to a million times greater than the one generated with a large pricey laser system.

While carbon nanotube cathodes have been studied extensively in academia Fermilab is the first facility to test the technology within a full-scale setting.

Fermilab was sought out to test the experimental cathode because of its capability and expertise for handling intense electron beams one of relatively few labs that can support this project.

The new cathode appears at first glance like a smooth black button but at the nanoscale it resembles in Piot's words millions of lightning rods.

When a strong electric field is applied it pulls streams of electrons off the surface of the cathode creating the electron beam.

The exceptional strength of carbon nanotubes prevents the cathode from being destroyed. Traditionally accelerator scientists use lasers to strike cathodes

in order to eject electrons through photoemission. The electric and magnetic fields of the particle accelerator then organize the electrons into a beam.

The tested nanotube cathode requires no laser: it only needs the electric field already generated by an accelerator to siphon the electrons off a process dubbed field emission n

These batteries typically contain cathode particles through which the electrons flow, an action that enables the battery to charge.

These cathode particles are composed typically of lithium iron phosphate or lithium cobalt oxide, mixed together with carbon black,

Ultimately, the rate at which a cathode particle charges depends on how well it is connected to carbon black particles,

"Li said that by upping the percentage of carbon black as high as 20 percent in some experiments they found that the cathode particles charged more quickly

Increasing the percentage of carbon black decreased the amount of cathode particles available to hold a charge.

because it has fewer cathode particles to hold the charge.""It's about finding the optimum balance and the best material,

This is why the Stanford researchers placed the aluminum anode, a graphite cathode and an ionic liquid electrolyte inside of a polymer-coated pouch.

the research team will have to improve the cathode material to increase the voltage and energy density.

The prototype battery features an anode made of aluminum, a cathode of graphite and an ionic liquid electrolyte,

"Improving the cathode material could eventually increase the voltage and energy density,"says Dai.""Otherwise, our battery has everything else you'd dream that a battery should have:

Flanked by connecting electrodes (an anode on one side and a cathode on the other),

called the cathode and anode. As the battery produces electrical current, electrons flow from the anode through a circuit outside the battery and back into the cathode.

Having lost the electrons that are generating the current, some of the atoms in the anode--an electrically conductive metal like lithium--become ions that then travel to the cathode,

moving through a conductive liquid medium called an electrolyte. Recharging the battery reverses the process,

The Stanford team ended up using our old friend graphene to play the cathode to aluminum's anode.

A typical lithium-ion battery consists of two tightly packed electrodes--a carbon anode and a lithium metal-oxide cathode--with an ultrathin polymer separator in between.

and eventually make contact with the cathode causing the battery to short. Smart separatorin the last couple of years we've been thinking about building a smart separator that can detect shorting before the dendrites reach the cathode said Cui a member of the photon science faculty at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory

at Stanford. To address the problem Cui and his colleagues applied a nanolayer of copper onto one side of a polymer separator creating a novel third electrode halfway between the anode and the cathode.

The copper layer acts like a sensor that allows you to measure the voltage difference between the anode

It's a warning that the battery should be removed before the dendrites reach the cathode and cause a short circuit.

Locating defectsin addition to observing a drop in voltage co-lead author Hui Wu was able to pinpoint where the dendrites had punctured the copper conductor simply by measuring the electrical resistance between the separator and the cathode.

so it has negligible effect on the flow of lithium ions between the cathode and the anode.

The research is focused mainly on reducing the expense of cathodes used in fuel cells that power homes and automobiles.

The oxygen-reduction reaction occurring at the cathode in the fuel cell requires platinum in substantial quantities.

An electrolyte or membrane is used to separate oxygen gas at the cathode region from hydrogen gas in the anodic region,

while ions can still migrate from the anode to the cathode. The electrolyte plays a key role.

It must permit only the appropriate ions to pass between the anode and cathode. If free electrons or other substances could travel through the electrolyte,

In crystalline form vanadium pentoxide can take three positively charged lithium ions--three times more than materials presently used in cathodes such as lithium iron phosphate.

To produce the cathode material Afyon and his colleagues blended powdered vanadium pentoxide with borate compounds.

Afyon used this vanadate-borate glass powder for the battery cathodes which he then placed in prototypes for coin cell batteries to undergo numerous charge/discharge cycles.

Their discovery that nanosheets of manganese dioxide can maintain a rechargable sulphur cathode helps to overcome a primary hurdle to building a Li-S battery.

sulphur can provide a competitive cathode material to lithium cobalt oxide in current lithium-ion cells.

Unfortunately, the sulphur cathode exhausts itself after only a few cycles because the sulphur dissolves into the electrolyte solution as it reduced by incoming electrons to form polysulphides.
