Abstract:
Systems and methods for configuring tabs on a rechargeable battery may include a current collector comprising one or more collector foil and one or more tabs connected to the collector foil for conveying generated current from the current collector. The tabs may be configured to extract greater capacity from the battery electrodes so that the resulting battery may exhibit higher performance. The tabs may be configured so that the length of the tab is greater than the height of the collector foil so the tab may cover the height of the collector foil and may protrude from the foil.
Abstract:
The invention provides nickel-copper clad tabs for rechargeable battery negative electrodes and methods of manufacturing thereof. Systems and methods for configuring tabs on a rechargeable battery may include a current collector comprising one or more collector foil and one or more tabs connected to the collector foil for conveying generated current from the current collector. The tabs may be configured to extract greater capacity from the battery electrodes so that the resulting battery may exhibit higher performance. The tabs may be configured so that a negative electrode tab may be clad with a nickel layer and a copper layer.
Abstract:
A primary battery includes a positive electrode having a first material capable of bonding with lithium, a negative electrode having lithium, and a non-aqueous electrolyte. The primary battery is capable of providing an average load voltage of greater than about 3.5 volts.
Abstract:
Positive electrodes for secondary batteries formed with a plurality of substantially aligned flakes within a coating. The flakes can be formed from metal oxide materials and have a number average longest dimension of greater than 60 μm. A variety of metal oxide or metal phosphate materials may be selected such as a group consisting of LiCoO2, LiMn2O4, Li(M1x1M2x2Co1-x1-x2)O2 where M1 and M2 are selected from among Li, Ni, Mn, Cr, Ti, Mg, or Al, 0≦x1≦0.5 and 0≦x2≦0.5, or alternatively, LiM1(1-x)MnxO2 where 0
