Goodenough, Nobel laureate who gave the world Li-ion batteries, passes away
John Bannister Goodenough, the American co-inventor of Lithium-ion batteries and a co-winner of 2019 Nobel prize for Chemistry, has passed away. He was just a month short of turning 101. Goodenough also played a significant role in the development of Random Access Memory (RAM) for computers.
Sadly we lost a great one today. For those who don't know Goodenough shared the noble prize for his work on lithium ion batteries and played a major in the development of RAM. So have a sip of coffee for him and thank him your phone/laptop.
He was good enough!
Warning, Exxon tries to take credit for creating Li Ion batteries. They did some research into them before giving up. Don't believe their lies.
A drink to his memory!
