A research work conducted by scientists from Japan could help make next-generation solid-state batteries. Researchers from Japan’s Tohoku University have confirmed that the pressure-assisted sintering techniques such as hot pressing (HP) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) were found effective to develop next-generation batteries.

Researchers highlighted that solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs) are drawing worldwide attention as a next-generation technology that promises higher energy density and greater safety than today’s lithium-ion batteries.
