Samsung's new solid-state battery for electric cars allow a range of 800 kilometers
Samsung researchers have presented the prototype of a solid-state battery cell, which should help electric cars reach a range of 800 kilometres and withstand over 1,000 charging cycles.
There is also a solution to the problem of dendrite formation in the lithium metal anodes, the Samsung researchers rely on a silver-carbon composite layer for the anode. This not only counteracts the dendrite problem but also ensures greater capacity and a longer lifespan. Samsung is convinced that this is a groundbreaking development.
With a thickness of five micrometres, the new anode technology is flatter than the conventional lithium solution. According to Samsung, a solid-state battery designed in this way should have an energy density of a lush 900 watt-hours per litre and yet be about 50% smaller than a lithium-ion battery.
