Kubukeka sengathi abacwaningi nososayensi baya ngokuya banzima nsuku zonke ngesihloko esesikhohliwe isikhathi eside njengokukwazi ukwenza amabhethri angcono kakhulu asivumela ukuthi sijabulele ukuzimela okukhulu kuzo zonke izinto zethu zobuchwepheshe. Esinye sezinyathelo ezintsha kulesi siqondiso sisanda kuthathwa yithimba labaphenyi eliholwa UJohn goodenough, umqambi wamabhethri wombuso oqinile.
Ngokuningiliziwe, ngikutshele ukuthi ngqo kulo muntu sikweleta amabhethri e-lithium ion noma isakhiwo sawo esiyingqayizivele futhi manje sekuyiqembu lakhe labaphenyi, izakhamizi ze ICockrell School of Engineering, osanda kushicilela iphepha elisha lapho sitshelwa khona ngokuhlolwa okuthile ngemiphumela 'yezinguquko' kulo mkhakha.
UJohn Goodenough, eneminyaka engama-96, angaphinda futhi aguqule umhlaba wezigubhu.
Njengoba kuphawulwe ngokwakhe UJohn goodenough Mayelana nokusebenzisa amabhethri amanje:
Izindleko, ukuphepha, ukuqina kwamandla, ukukhokhisa kanye nokukhipha amazinga kanye nemijikelezo yempilo kubalulekile ezimotweni ezisebenzisa ibhethri ukuthi zisetshenziswe kakhulu. Sikholwa ukuthi ukutholwa kwethu kusombulula izinkinga eziningi ezitholakala kumabhethri anamuhla.
Uma sinaka labo abachazwe esihlokweni esishicilelwe, amabhethri akhiqizwa elebhu yile mishini, ngokuya nge amaseli wombuso aqinile ane-crystal electrolyte, kungavumela ukusetshenziswa kwe-alkaline-metallic anode. Lokhu kunikela kakhulu eqinisweni lokuthi ibhethri elenziwe ngokulandela lesi sakhiwo ngeke nje lisekele ukushaja okusheshayo, kepha futhi lizonciphisa kakhulu izindleko zalo lapho lenziwa ngezinga elikhulu.
Uma konke lokhu sikubeka ngendlela efanele, lawa mabhethri amasha, ngokusho kwezibalo ezenziwe yithimba, angavela njenganikeza i- ukushaja ukuminyana kuze kube kathathu ngaphezulu kumabhethri ajwayelekile, imijikelezo yokushaja engaphezu kuka-1.200 enokumelana okuphansi emazingeni okushisa angaba phakathi kuka -20 ºC no-60 ºC.
