The latest breakthrough in lithium ion battery technology may not sound all that impressive. After all, we’re just talking about some modifications to the battery’s anode - a set of silicon whisker-like wires - hardly anything earthshattering. Yet, if you believe the claims of Stanford materials scientist Yi Cui, this modification could allow batteries to store up to 10 times the charge of conventional rechargeables - enough juice to power a laptop for almost 2 full days.
