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.
