Applications for Pure Silicon Anodes:

Although wearable devices exhibited astonishing growth during the first part of the decade, the pace of technological innovation has slowed. Smartwatches and earbuds have achieved widespread adoption, but other types of devices such as smart glasses, smart rings, and VR headsets have yet to catch up. What’s the reason for this slower pace of growth?

The answer is that batteries for wearable devices are still too large and too heavy. Right now, users might find that smart glasses aren’t ergonomical for all-day use – but if you shrink the battery to make them more comfortable, they won’t last all day on a single charge.

What if you could make smart glasses that are comfortable enough to wear all day, with battery life to match? What if you made a smartwatch that was small enough to compete in terms of aesthetics while retaining must-haves like fitness tracking? What if your earbuds had better sound quality because of increased room for audio hardware?

With pure silicon anodes from LeydenJar, you can shrink the size of the battery inside your wearable devices by up to 40% without any decrease in performance or lifespan. Using this innovation, you can create more lightweight and comfortable wearable devices – or even design something completely new.

Consumers want devices that are smaller, thinner, and lighter – while at the same time demanding more processing power for applications such as mobile gaming, streaming video, and artificial intelligence. This presents a difficult balancing act for manufacturers. With batteries often taking up over 25% of space inside mobile devices, it’s hard to make them both more powerful and more portable.

LeydenJar has solved this problem by creating the first pure silicon anodes for lithium-ion batteries that are suitable for mobile device applications.

Silicon anodes are inherently thinner and lighter than their graphite equivalents, while offering a 70% improvement in terms of energy density. What this means is that you can shrink the battery inside your phone or tablet by up to 40% without losing any performance or decreasing its lifespan.

With this innovation, you can create devices that are radically different from their forebears. The size of your battery is no longer a barrier to adding new features or differentiating from your competitors. What will you create with the space that we give you?

E-mobility spans a vast range of vehicles. It includes EVs that range from golf carts to heavy-duty work trucks, but it doesn’t end with four-wheeled vehicles. There are also drones of every size, from miniature FPV drones to industrial drones for delivery and inspection, plus a burgeoning market for electric VTOL and fixed-wing passenger aircraft.

Currently, every e-mobility design must trade between the following factors – having a longer range means having a larger battery, but a larger battery means a heavier vehicle. For a drone, a heavier vehicle requires more power, which means that larger batteries produce diminishing returns. For an EV, a heavier vehicle requires a larger and more expensive chassis, pricing out consumers at the entry level.

What if you could reduce the size and weight of your e-mobility battery by up to 40% without losing any range? What if you could keep your battery the same size and increase range by up to 50%? What if you could charge that battery to 80% capacity in just seven minutes?

Compact, lightweight, pure silicon anodes from LeydenJar help make the seemingly impossible real. Add battery size and range advantages without any sacrifices, allowing you to boost EV adoption, increase drone utility, and unlock new forms of electric mobility.
