New generation accumulators

High-Level Project Summary

The goal of the project: to create batteries to provide electricity to the rover and lander devices for a 60-day mission on Venus.We used the latest nanotechnology graphene material to make the battery durable to the harsh atmosphere of Venus and to store a lot of power.Graphene the best electrical conductor. In graphene, each carbon atom is bonded to three other carbon atoms in a two-dimensional plane, leaving one electron free for electron conduction. Recent studies have shown electron mobilities at values ​​greater than 15000 cm2 · V-1 · s-1. Graphene moves electrons 10 times faster than silicon, using less energy.The best heat conductor.
