Samsung's New Graphene Technology Will Double Life Of Your Lithium-Ion Battery

Abstract:
Samsung claims to be developing a new technology that can extend the life of a lithium-ion battery to double its current capacity on a single charge.

Battery life has always been a prickly issue for most smartphone users. While we have seen phenomenal advances in processors, displays and security, battery life remains a mediocre one day on average. Samsung says it might have found the solution by replacing the graphite anode, the part through which energy enters the battery, with graphene-coated silicon to make batteries with an energy density as much as 1.8 times more than current batteries.
