this episode of Android Weekly is brought to you by domain.com hold the presses the battery gods have answered our prayers that's right a new breakthrough from Samsung could almost double the life of your lithium battery researchers at Samsung Electronics announced yesterday that they have developed a new technology to produce a silicon cathode material that coats graphene onto a silicon surface for higher energy density in other words Samsung has found a way to almost double the capacity of lithium batteries which are used to power smartphones and various other gadgets smartphone capacity has increased slightly over the last decade but the technology remains limited by the physical size of gadgets and the limitations of the actual materials inside the battery and as we can't make batteries much bigger increasing the raw capacity is needed and researchers have been looking into new materials to find the solution this is where Samsung's research comes in the company has come up with a new coding method for battery cathodes which overcomes the cycling performance and capacity limitations imposed by current implementations the new process makes use of that excellent conductive material known as graphene which has grown directly onto the silicon coating surface without silicon carbide formation if this sounds familiar other groups in the US have been attempting similar ideas this allows for about 1.8 times greater than commercialized lithium-ion batteries meaning more battery capacity for a given area typically this type of design reduces the battery's lifespan due to more charge and discharge cycles but this time the researchers also claimed good cycling performance due to its multi-layer design Samsung expects that its breakthrough will have great implications for both mobile devices and the electric car industry which both really need additional battery capacity however like most new innovations industry observers expect that that technology is at least two or three years away from commercialization do you hear that that's all the hardcore android geeks breathing a sigh of relief you don't have to message me anymore about battery life because there's some relief on the way but I would ask that you put your thinking caps on again and please come up with another Android related domain name a.com domain name that has not been purchased yet people that should have been painfully clear last time but if you can do that come up with a Android related domain name cleverly creatively cuz it takes a lot of creativity I will send you a t-shirt I sent mr. Singh another t-shirt in India he should be getting that soon because it takes a lot of creativity to come up with a.com domain name that has not been thought of yet why because no domain name extension tells your story with the same level of trust as a.com or.net domain name dot-com and dotnet domain name extensions and Jack credibility into your online presence and who doesn't want more credibility you can save 15% on domain name and web hosting when you use our coupon code Android at domain.com check out don't forget 15% off when you use our coupon code Android when you think domain names think domain.com thanks for watching android army my name is chase love to connect with you right here on Google+ or Twitter and I follow you in the comments below you don't want to forget about these guys these guys over here working super hard to be your source for all things Android
