Li/organic-electrolyte/CuMoO4 battery systems are evaluated experimentally at 1.5-V operating voltage and energy densities (0.5 and 0.3 mA/sq cm) typical of batteries used in microelectronic devices. Electrolytes tested include LiClO4 and LiCF3SO3 in propylene carbonate and LiAsF6 in butyrolactone. The results are presented in graphs and discussed. The superiority of LiClO4 as an electrolyte salt and the feasibility of CuMoO4 as cathode are demonstrated. The energy density of the CuMoO4-cathode cell when discharged at 0.3 mA/sq cm to cutoff at 1 V is found to be 440 Wh/kg, comparable to that found in a Cu2S-cathode Li cell. 5 references.
