Researchers at Brookhaven National Laboratory have performed three studies on the electrochemical reactions that occur in nickel, cobalt, and aluminum (NCA) lithium-ion batteries. They studied average material morphologies as well as atomic-scale asymmetries to analyze the electronic and structural and degradations of these batteries.
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Organic Electronics, Electron Beam and Plasma Technology FEP (Fraunhofer FEP) have developed an innovative process for cost-effective production of piezoelectric materials for micro-energy harvesting applications. Developments in many applications require energy self-sufficient probes and miniature mobile electronics systems that acquire the energy they need from the surrounding environment.
Researchers at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory have discovered that a cubic garnet material (LLZO) could be used as a critical separator material in order to develop high-energy batteries.
Researchers at Stanford University have developed an ultrasound-powered, tiny electronic device for medical implant applications. These devices can be powered wirelessly, and now the researchers are trying to further reduce its size.
Nanyang Technology University (NTU) scientists have developed the next generation of batteries that have a 20-year lifespan and last for 10,000 recharge cycles. These batteries can be rapidly recharged up to 70% of their capacity within a short duration of two minutes.
A “smart" lithium-ion battery developed by scientists at Stanford University has a warning system that alerts users in advance if the battery is getting overheated and may burst into flames.
Engineers at Lancaster University are reinventing a Terahertz vacuum electron device for monitoring of plasma turbulence in nuclear fusion reactors. The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) has provided £450,000 for the study, which is being done by a collaborative group of researchers from the University of Leeds, the Beijing Vacuum Electronics Research Institute and the University of California Davis.
Researchers from the Stanford Institute for Materials & Energy Sciences and the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory are challenging the prevailing view that the rapid charging and draining of lithium ion batteries is damaging and have discovered a new way to think about battery degradation.
Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have unexpectedly discovered a new semiconducting material that can improve the efficiency of fuel cells by operating at a significantly lower temperature.
Landis+Gyr, the global leader in energy management solutions, announced today the signing of a contract worth approximately €60 million to deliver ‘Linky’ meters to ERDF. Landis+Gyris one of the leading suppliers for this strategic programme. From the beginning of the project, Landis+Gyrhas taken part in both designing and testing of the ‘Linky’ meter, in accordance with ERDF specifications. The meter is based on PLC (Power Line Communication) technology.
