27 Micro batteries Nya koncept Same foot-print area (base): 2D thin film Short Li transport path high rate capability (power) 2D thick film Large amount of active material high capacity (energy density) Specific power increases 2D thin film goal 2D thick film Specific energy increases 27

28 Why moving from 2D to 3D battery design? Same foot-print area (base): 3D thin film Short Li transport path AND Large amount of active materia No need to compromise between energy density and power density E. Perre 28/02/2012 PhD.
