Lithium ion batteries are batteries that function based on the transfer of lithium ions between a cathode and an anode. Lithium ion batteries have higher specific energies than batteries made from other materials such as zinc and lead due to the relatively light weight and low density of lithium.
Current lithium-ion batteries use cobalt oxide as the cathode, an expensive mineral mined in ways that harm people and the environment. Lithium-sulfur batteries replace cobalt oxide with sulfur, which is abundant and cheap, costing less than one-hundredth the price of cobalt.

Lithium-ion can refer to a wide array of chemistries, however, it ultimately consists of a battery based on charge and discharge reactions from a lithiated metal oxide cathode and a graphite anode. Two of the more commonly used lithium-ion chemistries--Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) and Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP)--are considered in detail here.
Lithium batteries are also more stable over charge/recharge cycles due to the small radii of lithium ions, which causes fewer disruptions of the electrode structure during ion transfer. Lithium ion batteries commonly use graphite and cobalt oxide as additional electrode materials.
