Fiber Sensor Detects Lithium

Brent D. Johnson

With its ability to readily accept and discharge electron carriers, lithium is one of the most common species of elements in rechargeable power cells. When it comes in contact with water, however, it is highly volatile. Lithium batteries, therefore, are composed of lithium salts that are dissolved with nonaqueous electrolytes, such as propylene carbonate, that stabilize the material. But the processes that take place in nonaqueous materials are more complex than those in aqueous ones and resist analysis with conventional chemical sensors. Now researchers at the University of South Carolina...Read full article
