Nanotechnology can improve these materials in several ways: - Increased Surface Area: Nanoscale particles have a larger surface area-to-volume ratio, which can facilitate faster electrochemical reactions. - Enhanced Conductivity: By incorporating conductive nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes or graphene, the electrical conductivity of the cathode can be significantly improved. - Structural Stability: Nanoscale engineering can help in reducing material degradation and improving the structural integrity of the cathode over multiple charge-discharge cycles.
