Development
Organic radical batteries were first researched and developed by NEC in 2005 with the intent of being widely used to power tiny gadgets in the near future. They began with a size of 300 microns, or 0.3mm, and an extremely quick charge time. Since the beginning of development, smart cards and RFID tags were the main targets for ORB usage. More recently, NEC has been working on a larger 0.7mm thin battery which is thicker, but also has a high charge capacity of 5mAh.

Famous quotes containing the word development:
“As a final instance of the force of limitations in the development of concentration, I must mention that beautiful creature, Helen Keller, whom I have known for these many years.

And a wide realm of wild reality.
And dreams in their development have breath,
And tears, and tortures, and the touch of joy.”
