Positive Electrode

Caption

A Stanford/SLAC researcher holds the positive electrode from a lithium ion coin cell battery used in experiments. Scientists charged these batteries with different levels of current for various periods of time, took them apart and used a brilliant X-ray beam to see how the charge was distributed among billions of nanoparticles in the positive electrode.
