Chip maker STMicroelectronics (ST) has announced the next generation of rechargeable batteries with the United States signed a commercial agreement FET developer, application market in the new FET using the “nano-energy” ultra-thin lithium-ion battery technology.
Flexible ultra-thin solid-state physics is a major cell technology features, it can be made “flexible” the ultra-thin batteries, thinnest and only 200 microns thick, the battery can also be made of different shapes and sizes.
In addition, the type of battery used solid-state lithium phosphorous oxynitride electrolyte, this material was first introduced by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory research, thin-film batteries will enable FET output power than the current most advanced battery button 10 times to 20 times.
ST-related official said, the current advanced a wide range of portable electronic products, have become increasingly demanding on the battery, but power in terms of performance, service life and environmental impact are lagging behind the development of electronic products, and the gap between the two bigger and bigger. Prior to this, the company has been in the development of micro-batteries and micro fuel cell technology.
