      No, they don’t provide any specifics about the capabilities of individual layers, but I would guess that they can customize the energy density of a solid-state battery by adjusting the manufacturing process.

      They do say that they are only currently the size of a pinhead, so they are still in the proof of concept phase.

        I see. It would be nice to at least hear a hypothetical energy density so we can get a feeling as to how good these new batteries would be.

          I agree with you, but it sounds like the technique is an advantage because it works at higher and lower temps than standard batteries.
