The Stereax miniature solid state batteries aim to address the challenges of powering next-generation, disruptive medtech devices – both implantable and small wearables or hearables. With an ultra-thin form factor, miniature footprint (mm-scale) and customisable in shape and dimensions, they can be stacked for increased energy density whilst remaining safe for implantable devices.
In its trading update of 9th July, Ilika confirmed that the contract had been awarded for “Tool 1”, a custom-designed evaporation tool for the rapid deposition of cathode materials for Ilika’s Stereax batteries. It is still expected that this will be ready for delivery to Ilika for process development in Q4 2020.
