NYU chemists and their colleagues have developed a method to yield highly detailed, three-dimensional images of the insides of batteries. Shown here is a 3D image of the inside of a lithium cell after charging and showing dendrite growth -- deposits than can reduce performance and compromise safety -- between the two electrodes that short-circuited the cell.
Enhanced 3D Look Inside Batteries
The technique offers an enhanced approach to monitor the condition of these power sources in real time.
