New batteries charge in just a few seconds

ArabiaWeather.com - Khitam Amer - Researchers at the University of Illinois, USA, recently invented a new type of battery that charges within a very short period of time, hardly exceeding a few seconds.

These batteries consist of a technology known as "three-dimensional nanostructure", which is a technology that deals with very small and micro particles, whose dimensions may reach one nanometer.

When comparing this new battery to the batteries currently used and known, whether made of nickel-cadmium or lithium-ion, it is characterized by the rapid passage of ions in the negative electrode, which is known as the cathode, and then accelerates the passage of these ions between the electrodes of the battery, which allows the ease of charging that battery very quickly without This affects the storage capacity of the battery.

These batteries are characterized by their capacity and efficiency, as they do not weaken with time in terms of their ability to store energy, and they also overcome the problem of traditional batteries that are damaged within a short time when used. Therefore, they are the ideal choice for users of laptops and mobile phones.
