Abstract: This bimonthly review paper highlights 100 recent publications on lithium batteries. These papers were selected from 924 contributions found from the Web of Science between 1 February 2013 and 31 March 2013. Layered oxide cathode materials, high voltage spinel and polyanion are still under extensive investigations. Significant efforts have been devoted to Si based anode materials although the well known drawbacks of volume expansion and low Coulombic efficiency of the materials have not been overcome.. Several papers have shown positive results for different electrolyte additives. Li-O2 and Li-S batteries with high energy density are found to the hot topic in the field. There are several papers on the SOH estimation and the degradation mechanisms of Li-ion batteries. There are also reports on calculations for electrode materials, SEI formation process and stress generation in the cells.

Key words: lithium batteries, cathode materials, anode material, electrolyte, battery technology
