Digital Quantum Battery Could Boost Energy Density Tenfold

In their study, Alfred Hubler and Onyeama Osuagwu, both of the University of 
Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign, have investigated energy storage capacity in arrays of nano 
vacuum tubes, which
contain little or no gas. When the tubes' gap size - or the distance between 
electrodes - is about
10 nanometers wide, electric arcing is suppressed, preventing energy loss. 
Further, each tube can be
addressed individually, making the technology digital and offering the 
possibility for data storage
in conjunction with energy storage.
