John Goodenough, The World 's oldest Nobel Prize winner who played a crucial role in developing the lithium-ion battery, has died at the Age Of 100.
He Passed Away on Sunday, according to the University of Texas at Austin, where he worked as an engineering professor.
" John's legacy as a brilliant scientist is immeasurable, " said University of Texas at Austin President Jay Hartzell .
Lithium-ion batteries power millions of electric vehicles around the globe.
The University of Texas described him as a " dedicated public servant, a sought-after mentor and a brilliant yet humble inventor".
Dr Goodenough was awarded a Nobel Prize in chemistry in 2019 at the Age Of 97 for his work on batteries, including the development of the lithium-ion battery.
The lightweight, powerful battery sparked a revolution in technology, paving The Way for modern portable electronics such as laptops and mobile phones. The batteries also play a Critical Role in powering larger modern devices, including solar panels.
Born in Germany in 1922 to American parents, Dr Goodenough grew up in the north-eastern US and served in the US army as a meteorologist during World War II. He earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Yale University , as well as a PhD in physics from the University of Chicago.
