From the beginning:
Quote:Caltech researchers from campus and JPL have collaborated to devise a method for coating lithium-ion battery cathodes with graphene, extending the life and performance of these widely used rechargeable batteries.
These efforts have led to a promising discovery that may improve lithium-ion battery performance and reduce reliance on cobalt, an element frequently used in lithium-ion batteries that is difficult to source sustainably.
