Because lithium-ion batteries are able to store a significant amount of energy in such a small package, charge quickly and last long, they became the battery of choice for new devices. But new battery technologies are being researched and developed to rival lithium-ion batteries in terms of efficiency, cost and sustainability.
However, there are still key obstacles that must be overcome in order to further improve the production technology of LIBs, such as reducing production energy consumption and the cost of raw materials, improving energy density, and increasing the lifespan of batteries .
However, the practical application of nanostructured electrode materials in lithium metal batteries still faces challenges, such as the difficulty in achieving uniform and stable nanostructures, the requirement for expensive and complex preparation methods, and the safety issues associated with their utilization.
These emerging frontiers in battery technology hold great promise for overcoming the limitations of conventional lithium-ion batteries. To effectively explore the latest developments in battery technology, it is important to first understand the complex landscape that researchers and engineers are dealing with.
Lithium-sulfur batteries (Figure 2), like solid-state batteries, are poised to overcome the limitations of traditional lithium-ion batteries (Wang et al., 2023). These batteries offer a high theoretical energy density and have the potential to revolutionize energy storage technologies (Wang et al., 2022).
Most battery-powered devices, from smartphones and tablets to electric vehicles and energy storage systems, rely on lithium-ion battery technology. Because lithium-ion batteries are able to store a significant amount of energy in such a small package, charge quickly and last long, they became the battery of choice for new devices.
