This diagram shows the traditional anode, left, and the multi-medal patterned anode, right, created by the Sandia National Laboratories team. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible for ...

New research has identified a nanostructure that improves the anode in lithium-ion batteries. Instead of using graphite for the anode, the researchers turned to silicon: a material that stores more ...

Anode – Typically made of reactive materials like lithium or zinc, the anode undergoes oxidation, releasing electrons. Cathode – A material capable of accepting electrons, the cathode undergoes ...

Which side of the diode is the anode and which is the cathode? Do you have a method that allows you to easily remember the correct side? The anode and cathode are noted on the symbol. A is for anode; ...
