Room-temperature fluorine-ion batteries are possible, according to computer simulations by a team of scientist in the US – potentially leading to an anion-based rechargeable battery to trump cation-based technology like Li-ion. “Fluoride-based battery electrodes can store more ions per site than typical lithium-ion electrodes, which means that this technology has the capability to be much more ...
