MIT Researchers Build Tiny Batteries With Viruses!

by | Oct 17, 2007 | Lifestyle

MIT scientists have harnessed the construction talents of tiny viruses to build ultra-small “nanowire” structures for use in very thin lithium-ion batteries. By manipulating a few genes inside these viruses, the team was able to coax the organisms to grow and self-assemble into a functional electronic device.
