Anode material for safe batteries with a long cycle life: Lithium lanthanum titanate particles enable high power densities even in micrometer sizes

Researchers investigated a highly promising anode material for future high-performance batteries - lithium lanthanum titanate with a perovskite crystal structure (LLTO). Researchers can improve the energy density, power density, charging rate, safety, and cycle life of batteries without requiring a decrease of the particle size from micro to nano scale.
