A carpet of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) extends from a conductive substrate. The CNTs are bundled, and the bundles are bonded to the substrate to create low-resistance connections. A polymeric adhesive around the bases of the bundles binds the CNTs to the subs...

Described is a lithium-sulfur electrochemical cell in which the anode and the cathode are each equipped with a respective solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer that inhibits lithium side reactions. On the cathode side, the SEI layer inhibits the shuttle...

A structure for electrochemical cells includes a conductive sheet, a layer of conductive nanomaterial, such as carbon nanotubes, on the sheet's surface, and a dry, ionically conductive adhesive, comprising a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), binding the ...
