[excerpt]What about a laptop than can be used without any power supply for 24 hours? And what do you think of a mobile phone with a standby time of 60 days?
Professor Yi Cui of Standford University and Michael McGehee are working hard in this field. Thanks to the replacement of carbon with nanowires, they are studying how to improve lithium batteries’ life.[/excerpt]
The Menlo Park-based venture capital firm [MDV] announced the four winners of its inaugural Innovators Award (the other two are from the University of California-Berkeley) on Nov. 15.
Since they have received the proper support, I look forward to hearing from them again in the near future. Battery life is nowadays the biggest issue for any portable device. If someone will be able to solve this, he’s not only going to become rich and famous… but they’ll make users and vendors very happy.
