Solid state battery

A solid-state battery is an electrochemical energy storage device that uses solid electrolytes instead of liquid or gel electrolytes found in conventional batteries. This type of battery features solid materials to facilitate ion conduction, typically combining elements like lithium with various solid electrolyte compounds. Solid-state batteries are known for their potential to offer higher energy density, improved safety, and longer life cycles compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries. The solid electrolyte can reduce the risk of leakage, flammability, and dendrite growth, which can lead to battery failure. Because of these advantages, solid-state batteries are being researched and developed for use in various applications, including electric vehicles, portable electronics, and renewable energy storage.
