Dr. Ha Yoon-Cheol's team at KERI's Next Generation Battery Research Center has developed an "enhanced coprecipitation method" that enables faster and higher-quality production of lithium superionic conductors for all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). ASSB replaces the "electrolyte," which transfers ions between the anode and cathode, with a solid instead of a liquid,...
