SAN JOSE, Calif., October 16, 2023 - Ensurge Micropower (OSE: ENSU, and OTCQB:
ENMPY) ("Ensurge" or the "Company"), today announces that a peer-reviewed paper
describing its solid-state lithium thin-film battery technology has been
accepted in the American Chemical Society's ACS Energy Letters, one of the
world's top journals covering electrochemistry, energy and fuels, and
nanoscience and nanotechnology. The paper's authors include Ensurge Executive
Vice President of Technology Development Arvind Kamath and Shirley Meng, Ensurge
technology advisory board member, and a Professor of Molecular Engineering at
the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago.
"This stands as a resounding affirmation of Ensurge's dedicated journey towards
a scalable and profoundly marketable transformative battery technology.
Ensurge's strides represent significant progress within the scientific
community, encompassing a deeper comprehension of all-solid-state battery
materials, deposition methodologies, layered architectures, and other pivotal
technological facets," said Lars Eikeland, Ensurge's CEO. "We take immense pride
in our team's contribution to the publication of this paper in one of the
field's most widely recognized journals. It exemplifies our collaborative spirit
and collective endeavor, yielding technological accomplishments that pave the
way for the commercialization of the inaugural microbattery, poised to transcend
conventional lithium battery constraints, ushering in a new era of electronic
innovations."
The ACS Energy Letters article by D. Cheng et al is titled "Manufacturing
Scale-Up of Anodeless Solid State Lithium Thin Film Batteries for High
Volumetric Energy Density Applications." It describes Ensurge's compact,
rechargeable 1-100 milliampere-hour (mAh) battery for form-factor-constrained
wearables and other high-performance electronic devices that need greater
volumetric energy density (VED), fast charging, safety, long cycle life, and
compatibility with surface-mount technology (SMT) assembly into product PCBs.
The paper also explains how these capabilities are delivered using an anodeless
architecture and low-waste, roll-to-roll fabrication process in a simplified
manufacturing environment.
ACS Energy Letters is currently ranked the #1 journal in the Web of Science
Electrochemistry category, and ranks within the top 10 journals for Physical
Chemistry, Energy & Fuels, and Nanoscience & Nanotechnology. The publication is
one of a growing portfolio of more than 80 ACS Publications journals that are
the most cited in chemistry.
About ACS
The American Chemical Society (ACS) is a nonprofit organization chartered by the
U.S. Congress. ACS' mission is to advance the broader chemistry enterprise and
its practitioners for the benefit of Earth and all its people. The Society is a
global leader in promoting excellence in science education and providing access
to chemistry-related information and research through its multiple research
solutions, peer-reviewed journals, scientific conferences, eBooks and weekly
news periodical Chemical & Engineering News. ACS journals are among the most
cited, most trusted and most read within the scientific literature; however, ACS
itself does not conduct chemical research. As a leader in scientific information
solutions, its CAS division partners with global innovators to accelerate
breakthroughs by curating, connecting and analyzing the world's scientific
knowledge. ACS' main offices are in Washington, D.C., and Columbus, Ohio.
