Abstract

Abstract: This bimonthly review paper highlights 100 recent published papers on lithium batteries. We searched the Web of Science and found 1416 papers online from April 1,2015 to May 31,2015. 100 of them were selected to be highlighted. Layered oxide and high voltage spinel cathode materials are still under extensive investigations for the structure evolution and modifications. Large efforts were devoted to Si based anode material. There are a few papers related to electrolyte additives, solid state electrolyte, Li/S and more papers for characterizations, modeling and analyzing the fading and thermal safety mechanism of the cell.
