Lu Ma, a beamline scientist at Brookhaven Lab, discusses how the Quick X-ray Absorption and Scattering beamline can map the inside of batteries used in cell phones or electric cars to determine why they may be charging slowly. Learn how synchrotron science can identify the flaws in current battery designs to pave the way for faster-charging batteries.
