Jingxu (Kent) Zheng, Qing Zhao et al. from Prof. Lynden Archer’s research group, report on a new concept that utilizes epitaxy to template the metal electrodeposition morphology in battery anodes, resulting in highly stable battery anodes that can operate over 10,000 cycles at ultrahigh rate. In the latest issue of Science, appears a report from the Archer group describing a novel strategy to manipulate electrochemical and interfacial reactions in battery anodes that utilize metals such as Lithium, Sodium, Zinc, and Aluminum for low-cost & high-energy storage of electricity. In the paper, they...
