How to build better Solid State Batteries - A practical guide for lab scale cells.

‍

Solid-state batteries are gaining attention and focus from the entire battery industry due to their potential for significant improvements in battery technology. However, evaluating the electrochemical performance of materials and solid-state cells can be a complex challenge. One crucial aspect is the “human factor” in the cell assembly processes.

Together with the experts from hte GmbH - a renowned high-throughput experimentation company, we gathered over 10 years of experimental knowledge into a white paper, describing best practices and pitfalls to avoid when assembling solid-state battery cells in the lab. We hope to provide valuable input for researchers around the world to improve the reliability and data quality of experimental results.

A 2024 Deep-Dive into the Solid-State Battery Market

At Sphere Energy, we believe the landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) is undergoing a profound transformation. Over the past few years, Generative Pre-trained Transformer models used in large language models (LLMs) like GPT-3 and GPT-4 have captured the public's imagination with their impressive language processing capabilities. These models have showcased the power of transformer-based architectures, demonstrating their potential across a wide range of language-based tasks. However, we think the next major evolution in AI lies beyond language alone: it’s in agentic AI and foundation models.
