Organic radical battery
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Organic radical battery (ORB) is a new battery technology being developed by NEC.
[edit] Advantages
ORB's are characterized by an extremely thin profile (0.3 mm), flexibility, and very fast charge time (about 30 seconds), in addition to a relatively high energy density (1 mWh per square cm). The technology is also being welcomed by environmentalists because ORB batteries do not contain any of the heavy metals that pose the problem of proper disposal.
