 lithium batteries Lithium batteries are primary batteries that have lithium metal or lithium compounds as an anode. Depending on the design and chemical compounds used lithium cells can produce voltages from 1.5V to about 3V, twice the voltage of an ordinary zinc-carbon battery or alkaline cell.  have been the answer to consumers demand for high power and longer run time batteries for over a decade. However, today's rechargeable batteries A rechargeable battery, also known as a storage battery, is a group of two or more secondary cells. These batteries can be restored to full charge by the application of electrical energy.  have either reached or are quickly nearing their theoretical energy density limit. This is a serious trend, as electronic devices are constantly becoming more converged and multi-functional, a trend which requires additional power to provide longer runtimes. Technological developments in terms of finding new electrode electrode, terminal through which electric current passes between metallic and nonmetallic parts of an electric circuit. In most familiar circuits current is carried by metallic conductors, but in some circuits the current passes for some distance through a  materials, new design concepts and so on are being undertaken in order to further enhance the features of lithium lithium (lĭth`ēəm) [Gr.,=stone], metallic chemical element; symbol Li; at. no. 3; at. wt. 6.941; m.p. about 180.54°C;; b.p. about 1,342°C;; sp. gr. .534 at 20°C;; valence +1. Lithium is a soft, silver-white metal.  and other battery chemistries to solve consumer complaints about lack of power. For instance, lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries on an average provide only up to three to four hours of continuous operating time in cell phones. The demand for lithium batteries is expected to be strong in the future with many existing applications shifting towards using lithium batteries and newer applications coming on the market.

Consumer devices such as digital cameras, camcorders, laptops, PDAs, MP3 players A digital music player that supports the MP3 format, which was the audio format that started a revolution in online music downloads and distribution. All portable music players, the iPod being the most popular, support MP3 along with one or more other audio formats.  and cell phones as well as military and telecommunication backup applications are expected to be some of the lucrative markets for emerging battery technologies. However, many other industrial uses such as cordless cord·less

. A lot of research and development (R&D) is taking place in the battery industry. As portable devices continue to evolve and require additional power to operate, battery chemistries must also evolve and improve in energy density and capacity. Some of the more mature battery chemistries are slow to demonstrate innovation, however there are many areas in which lithium ion A rechargeable battery technology introduced in 1991 that provides greater charge per pound than nickel metal hydride. In 1993, Toshiba introduced the first notebook in the U.S. with a Li-ion battery.  batteries are constantly evolving. Whether it is using new, innovative materials in the battery, or developing safer battery options, R&D plays an important role in the worldwide battery market.

The amount of work being done in terms of emerging battery R&D is quite extensive. This research outlines the most advanced technologies in terms of commercialization stage. There are many other types of batteries being reviewed and developed, so this research is not expected to be definitive.
