New research identifies a simple strategy for combatting a major stumbling block in the development of next-generation ...

A new study introduces a simple molecular-engineering strategy that dramatically improves the reversibility of zinc plating ...

For many years, in-situ observations of dynamic processes in the electron microscope have been performed. This process began just shortly after the first electron microscopes were invented. Over the ...

As the world lessens its dependence on fossil fuels, industries and manufacturers are turning to lithium-ion batteries to power the machines that make modern life possible. These batteries power ...

Writer and occasional reluctant perpetrator of engine swaps, James O'Neil is a malaise era enthusiast and also fascinated by the many ways the auto industry has since recovered from those dark days. A ...

Discover how a magnetism strategy has helped scientists design a battery which delivers four times the energy storage while ...

They are considered the 'Holy Grail' of battery research: so-called 'solid-state batteries'. They no longer have a liquid core, as is the case with today's batteries, but consist of a solid material.

Battery dendrites are not caused by electrical origins, but instead have mechanical sources. The dendrites propagate due to fracture of the electrolyte and subsequent crack filling-in. Stresses on the ...
