Cover Story: The cover image illustrates some of the key design parameters investigated in our paper on lithium-ion cell design strategies. We examined cells from several manufacturers and most of our expectations were confirmed. However, the thicknesses of the metal foils was more dependent on the date of design, rather than power vs. energy considerations. View this paper.
