U.S. scientists have developed a quantum batteries
American scientists from the University of Illinois developed the concept of quantum battery, reports Technology Review. It is assumed that the new batteries will be up to 10 times more succinct than this common lithium-ion batteries.
According to the developers each quantum battery would consist of billions of nanometer-sized capacitors. Due to quantum effects nanocapacitors capacity will increase significantly as a result of which they will be able to accumulate a huge amount of energy.
The developers also promise a quantum battery in addition to increased capacity of new battery will have a high rate charging. Therefore to fully charge the phone equipped with a quantum battery it only takes a few minutes.
Unfortunately the practical realization of the concept of American scientists far. At present quantum battery exists only on paper.
