Wearable 'honeycomb' lithium-ion battery

Scientists in South Korea have worked with graphene and carbon nanotubes to develop a working lithium-ion battery that can be stretched by up to 50% without damage to any of the components. According to the scientists, the battery represents a significant step in the development of wearable or body-implantable electronic devices.Integrating electronics - and therefore energy generation or storage - into all sorts of devices is a fast-moving area of research, and one that places new and often strange requirements on electronic materials, by designing batteries that can be worked into clothing or ...
