Nature World: Researchers from the University of California, Irvine have accidentally made a battery that can last up to 200,000 cycles of recharging and can last up to 400 times longer. According to their study published in the journal ACS Energy Letters, the original idea of the research was to create a solid-state battery by substituting the common liquid in the lithium batteries with a much thicker electrolyte gel. They also replaced the lithium in the batteries with gold nanowires for electric storage....
