Scientists Tap Artificial Intelligence To Revolutionize Battery Chemistry

Argonne National Laboratory scientists explain upgrading the hunt for electrolytes with artificial intelligence that could enable revolutionary battery chemistries. A new paper published in Science, Meng and colleagues laid out their vision for electrolyte design in future generations of batteries. Designing a battery is a three-part process. You need a positive electrode, you need a negative electrode, and – for the critical connection – you need an electrolyte that works with both electrodes. An electrolyte is the battery component…
