Lithium battery may refer to:
*
Lithium metal battery
Lithium metal batteries are primary batteries that have metallic lithium as an anode. These types of batteries are also referred to as lithium-metal batteries after lithium-ion batteries had been invented. Most lithium metal batteries are non- ...
, a non-rechargeable battery with lithium as an anode
**
Rechargeable lithium metal battery, a rechargeable counterpart to the lithium metal battery
*
Lithium-ion battery
A lithium-ion or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery which uses the reversible reduction of lithium ions to store energy. It is the predominant battery type used in portable consumer electronics and electric vehicles. It also s ...
, a rechargeable battery in which lithium ions move from the negative electrode to the positive electrode during discharge and back when charging
**
Thin-film lithium-ion battery, a solid-state lithium-ion battery constructed as a thin-film
**
Aqueous lithium-ion battery
**
Lithium-ion flow battery
**
Lithium ion manganese oxide battery A lithium ion manganese oxide battery (LMO) is a lithium-ion cell that uses manganese dioxide, , as the cathode material. They function through the same intercalation/de-intercalation mechanism as other commercialized secondary battery technologi ...
*
Lithium polymer battery
A lithium polymer battery, or more correctly lithium-ion polymer battery (abbreviated as LiPo, LIP, Li-poly, lithium-poly and others), is a rechargeable battery of lithium-ion technology using a polymer electrolyte instead of a liquid electrol ...
*
Lithium–sulfur battery
The lithium–sulfur battery (Li–S battery) is a type of rechargeable battery. It is notable for its high specific energy. The low atomic weight of lithium and moderate atomic weight of sulfur means that Li–S batteries are relatively light (a ...
*
Lithium-titanate battery
The lithium-titanate or lithium-titanium-oxide (LTO) battery is a type of rechargeable battery which has the advantage of being faster to charge than other lithium-ion batteries but the disadvantage of having a much lower energy density.
