Revolutionizing Wearables: Samsung Unveils Groundbreaking Ultra-Miniature All-Solid-State Battery
- Samsung Electro-Mechanics has made a groundbreaking achievement in developing the world's first ultra-small all-solid-state battery for wearable devices.
- According to related industries, the all-solid battery for wearables recently developed by Samsung Electro-Mechanics boasts an energy density of 200Wh / ℓ, the highest level in the industry.
- All-solid state batteries utilize non-flammable solid electrolytes for charging and discharging, significantly reducing the risk of explosion even when subjected to external shocks.
Electrolyte is ‘solid’… Less risk of explosion
Samsung Electro-Mechanics has made a groundbreaking achievement in developing the world’s first ultra-small all-solid-state battery for wearable devices.
According to related industries, the all-solid battery for wearables recently developed by Samsung Electro-Mechanics boasts an energy density of 200Wh / ℓ, the highest level in the industry. The company is currently evaluating prototypes for customers.
All-solid state batteries utilize non-flammable solid electrolytes for charging and discharging, significantly reducing the risk of explosion even when subjected to external shocks. Additionally, these batteries can be produced in various shapes, including flat and polygonal forms, making them an attractive option for next-generation battery technology.
Samsung Electro-Mechanics has been actively preparing for commercialization by securing several patents related to all-solid oxide-based batteries. Over the past three years, the company has applied for approximately 40 patents abroad, including those for solid electrolyte core material composition and original battery structure design.
At the world’s largest home appliance and IT exhibition ‘CES 2024’ in January, Samsung Electro-Mechanics President Jang Deok-hyun stated, “We will develop a small all-solid battery for wearables by leveraging the ignition process and ceramic technology used in multilayer ceramic containers (MLCC).”
