RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES, INCLUDING ORGANIC BATTERIES

Rapid charging and high energy density are valuable battery attributes. However, high performance batteries with both of these attributes can be difficult to achieve. Conventional high performance batteries rely on metal-based electrodes including materials that can be difficult to source. Batteries with high capacity, even during rapid charge-discharge cycling, are herein provided. According to some embodiments, a battery provided herein includes an organic electrode and an organic, non-aqueous solvent system. Constituents of the organic electrode may be additionally advantaged by the comparative case with which they may be sourced.
