This New Super-Battery Was Inspired By A Pomegranate :

• The rechargeable battery,which always disappoint you with its performance in this new digital era of smart gadgets. 

• Indeed, scientists have been swallowing  years on a lithium-ion battery with a longer lifespan. 

• But who would've thought that the inspiration for the most promising new design of batteries would come from inside a pomegranate?

• Yes, this promising new design has been Developed over the course of eight years by a team at Stanford and the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator lab, 

• This new battery houses silicon nanoparticles clustered inside like pomegranate seeds within a rind of carbontraces.

• Similar to the way pomegranate fruits pack more antioxidant punch than blueberries, silicon anodes (a battery’s negative electrodes) can store 10 times more charge than the graphite anodes currently used in lithium-ion batteries. 

• But historically, silicon has proved difficult to use in batteries, because it gets brittle and break easy property. and Additional to this, silicon reacts with other chemicals in batteries, creating a gunk that eventually kills the whole system and making it dead. 

• The designers at Stanford solved this problem by encasing the silicon nanoparticles in a cozy membrane of carbon--much like the way pomegranate seeds are housed within a squishy pulp. 

• During charging, the silicon seeds can swell within the membrane, lessening breakage and reducing gunky interactions between silicon and other battery chemicals.

• And their had been a news that,Experiments showed our pomegranate-inspired anode operates at 97% capacity even after 1,000 cycles of charging and discharging, which puts it well within the desired range for commercial operation," said Yi Cui, associate professor at Stanford and lead researcher, in a press release.

•  "While a couple of challenges remain, this design brings us closer to using silicon anodes in smaller, lighter and more powerful batteries for products like cell phones, tablets and electric cars.”

• It might take  few more years,before you start charging your very own pomegranate battery--the designers are still perfecting the design and are sourcing cheaper silicon particles to make it affordable for the consumer market. But however long it takes, it's an exciting step in battery design. 

• It appears this hyped superfood is good news not just for the health world, but for the tech world, too.with an attitude of better and peaceful future and promising concepts good day have exiciting surfing on our pages
