2+ mon, 2+ week ago  (475+ words) Lithium-ion batteries are used in smartphones, laptops, electric cars, and stationary energy storage systems. Although their design has hardly changed in years, one key problem remains: the gradual aging of cells. That's why lithium-ion batteries lose capacity over time. A…...

1+ mon, 3+ week ago  (298+ words) A team at the University of Oxford has created an advanced technique that makes it possible to clearly see a vital component inside lithium-ion battery electrodes that scientists have struggled to track. The findings, published on February 17 in Nature Communications,…...

3+ mon, 2+ week ago  (366+ words) "This is a significant breakthrough." Researchers have recently discovered a way to make an efficient battery out of zinc " an inexpensive, commonly found metal" instead of the rare metals used in lithium batteries. Most rechargeable batteries today are lithium-ion batteries,…...

3+ week, 4+ day ago  (1099+ words) Sodium-ion batteries have a clear materials-cost and availability advantage, but lithium-ion still holds the edge in energy density and remains the chemistry of choice where mass and volume are limited. 1 Saving this article for later?

1+ hour, 2+ min ago  (954+ words) Researchers led by Northwestern University have developed a fuel cell that generates electricity using microbes naturally found in soil. The device, roughly the size of a paperback book, produces small amounts of power by capturing energy released as these microorganisms…...

1+ hour, 25+ min ago  (484+ words) Imagine a battery that holds more energy, lasts longer, and is safer to use. Scientists from Argonne National Laboratory and University of Chicago say they have found a surprisingly simple way to move closer to that goal. Their new method…...

2+ mon, 4+ day ago  (486+ words) The statement of task given to the Committee on Mathematical Challenges from Computational Chemistry reads as follows: "The committee will investigate and report on opportunities for As a result of its investigations and collective evaluation of the available information, the…...

2+ week, 1+ day ago  (541+ words) Credit: Siyu Luo, Zhibo Li, Jing Hu & Xiaolin Liao A new study reveals that biochar, a carbon-rich material increasingly used in agriculture, can significantly influence how soils respond to warming when releasing nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas. The findings…...

1+ mon, 1+ week ago  (110+ words) This cover art highlights the near-frictionless motion of particle-coated pico- to nanoliter droplets (micro liquid marbles) on solid surfaces. This is enabled by liquid-repellent particle coating leading to precise control of ultra-small liquid volumes for microfluidics applications. Credit must be…...
