Low resistance electrical & thermal bond and method of making same

摘要

There is provided a method of creating a carbon to metal connection (16) by placing a portion of a carbon material (12) onto a meal material (14) at a location where a thermal or electrical contact is desired and then joining the carbon material (12) and metal material (14), thereby creating a uniform bond therebetween. Also provided by the present invention is a carbon material (12) having multiple sides and a metal material (14) joined to the carbon material (12) whereby the connection (16) is made by placing a portion of the carbon material (12) onto the metal material (14) at the location for the desired connection (16) and joining the carbon material (12) and metal material (14) thereby creating a uniform bond between the carbon material (12) and metal material (14) for use in a dual graphite energy storage cell or battery.
