When your laptop or smartphone heats up, it's due to energy that's lost in translation. The same goes for power lines that transmit electricity between cities. In fact, around 10 percent of the generated energy is lost in the transmission of electricity. That's because the electrons that carry electric charge do so as free agents, bumping and grazing against other electrons as they move collectively through power cords and transmission lines. All this jostling generates friction, and, ultimately, heat.
Piedmont Lithium, a developer of lithium resources critical to the U.S. electric vehicle supply chain, today announced that partners Atlantic Lithium and Sayona Mining have released technical studies on the Ewoyaa Lithium Project in Ghana and the producing North American Lithium project in Quebec, respectively.
Hiden Analytical, a leading provider of advanced scientific instrumentation, today announced the successful application of its Quadrupole Focused Ion Beam Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (FIB-SIMS) for lithium-ion battery research.
Some molecules exist in two forms, such that their structures and their mirror images are not superimposable, like our left and right hands. As a result of their asymmetry, these molecules exhibit a trait known as chirality.
Veeco Instruments Inc. announced today that it has received an order from Quantum Foundry Copenhagen P/S, based in Copenhagen, Denmark for multiple GEN20® Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) Systems.
Supramolecular polymers—the versatile, "next-gen" polymers—offer potential applications in a variety of fields. However, achieving precise control of their polymerization requires a greater understa...
Optical Gaging Products (OGP®), a world-leading manufacturer of optical and precision multisensor metrology systems for industrial quality control, is proud to announce SmartScope® E45, a floor model addition to the all-new SmartScope E-Series family of Automatic Digital Zoom Metrology Systems.
The eutectic structure of metals and ceramics occurs when multiple solid phases solidify from a liquid phase, forming a three-dimensional (3D) pattern through a self-organizing phenomenon.
Relaxor–ferroelectric materials are high-performance ultrasound generation elements exhibiting large dielectric responses owing to their complex structures.
A team of international scientists has used NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to detect a new carbon compound in space for the first time. Known as methyl cation (pronounced cat-eye-on) (CH3+), the molecule is important because it aids the formation of more complex carbon-based molecules. Methyl cation was detected in a young star system, with a protoplanetary disk, known as d203-506, which is located about 1,350 light-years away in the Orion Nebula.
