XDSL NEWS
LITTLE FALLS, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 12, 2006--
mPhase Technologies (OTC: XDSL) today is reporting that
an improved design in the nanostructure for its "smart" battery under
development will make it easier to be manufactured.
Speaking at the Advancements in Battery Technology & Power
Management Conference in Chicago, Alex Langa, the company's director
of Business Development, reported that a "honeycomb" membrane design
is helping to reduce the processing steps required to manufacture the
battery. The honeycomb membrane separates the electrolyte from coming
into contact with the electrodes until power is needed. This property
enhances a key feature of the device to immediately begin the
electrochemical process of producing power on demand.
The device relies on the principles of microfluidics and
electro-wetting to keep the battery in an inactive state for a very
long shelf life, while retaining the properties of reaching full
voltage potential when called upon to produce current. In its February
2006 edition, the prestigious and authoritative Scientific American
Magazine featured the nanobattery in a four-page feature article,
"Miniaturized Power."
