The premise of new Silicon battery technology is that silicon promises better capacity, longer-range, and faster-charging, than batteries with traditional graphite anodes. I explain things below. In simple terms, a battery is a device that stores and provides electricity, and it does so by using electrochemical reactions.
Adding silicon to the graphite increases the capacity of the anode. Currently, commercial silicon-carbon batteries have a capacity of around 550 mAh/g. The resulting increase in capacity is significant to make a difference in smartphone battery capacity.
