Printing tiny batteries | Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences
A research team from Harvard University and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has demonstrated the ability to 3D print a battery. This image shows the interlaced stack of electrodes that were printed layer by layer to create the working anode and cathode of a microbattery. (SEM image courtesy of Jennifer A. Lewis.)
Imagine, a lithium battery the size of a grain of sand putting out the same amount of power as a AAA. Would certainly make for some interesting lasers
