This is pretty amazing and immediately prompted other questions for me. The foremost being how do I get one of those 5th generation batteries in a 12V automotive drop-in format? It seems like the answer at the moment is that I can't they are only available retail built into high end EVs.
Another is how might semiconductor manufacturing techniques transfer over to batteries? I'm a software guy so at least 20% of this article were manufacturing techniques I'd never heard of. But it seems like chemical vapor deposition might start to be relevant, if even more expensive than the techniques used to get nanometer-scale precision results.
