In the field of basic lithium-ion battery research, "unrepeatable experimental data and no basis for electrode selection" have long been key pain points plaguing researchers. Recently, a major breakthrough has been achieved in a study focusing on the standardized parameters of glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs) for lithium-ion batteries. After systematically testing GCEs of different specifications r...
