Considering lithium-oxygen batteries (Li-O2) have a better power density than lithium-ion batteries, they are a popular alternative. A new article in the journal ACS Applied Energy Materials discusses the effects of water on aprotic lithium oxygen batteries, such as the use of membranes for corrosion prevention and variations in cyclic stability.
A research team from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities has created a novel microfluidic chip for disease diagnosis, which has a small number of components and can be charged wirelessly by a smartphone. The breakthrough paves the way for more convenient and economical at-home medical testing.
Professor Runwei Li’s group at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) has devised a nano-liquid-metal-based extremely powerful stretchable electrode (NHSE) for a variety of electronic skin (e-skin) functionalities, including human healthcare monitoring and human-machine interaction.
Similar to how an electrical switch helps control the flow of electric current, thermal switches could also control the flow of heat.
In an article recently published in the open-access journal Energies, researchers discussed the utility of flow batteries as a source for an autonomous power supply system.
Solar cells will undoubtedly play an important role in the development of a sustainable energy future.
Writing in Sustainability, scientists from India and the United Arab Emirates have investigated the factors which affect the safe disposal of electronic waste.
An international research team has moved closer to developing a more sustainable, rechargeable ‘organic’ battery model by doubling its energy storage capability.
According to a recently funded national partnership directed by Penn State University (PSU), electronics comprising wide bandgap semiconductors offer improved resistance against radiation damage compared to traditional silicon-based electronics.
In an article recently published in the journal ACS Applied Energy Materials, researchers presented insights on the air stability and surface chemistry of the storage of garnet solid electrolytes.
