Li-ion batteries (types)

 A lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery is a type of advanced battery in which lithium ions play an important role in electrochemistry. During a discharge cycle, lithium atoms in the anode are ionized and separated from their electrons. The lithium ions pass from the anode to the cathode via the electrolyte, where they recombine with their electrons and are electrically neutralized. The lithium ions are small enough to pass through the anode and cathode separator’s micro-permeable separator. Li-ion batteries can have very high voltage and charge storage per unit mass and unit volume due to the small size of lithium (third only to hydrogen and helium).
