Researchers Develop a Soft Battery That Has the Consistency of Toothpaste
Devices are often limited by the bulkiness of their batteries—but what if we could shape the batteries into whatever form we want?

A chemical reaction causes electrons to flow from the anode to the cathode—a process we call electricity—which can do work as it moves, like powering a lightbulb or a device. So, it’s a sustainable alternative,” says Mohsen Mohammadi, a lead author of the study and postdoctoral fellow at Linköping University’s Laboratory of Organic Electronics.
