When two materials come into contact, charged entities on their surfaces get a little nudge. This is how rubbing a balloon on the skin creates static electricity. Likewise, water flowing over some ...

A new EV battery breakthrough in South Korea's Dongguk University "offers a pathway to smaller, lighter, and more efficient ...

The development is promising, but for now remains under research. Researchers make breakthrough on revolutionary device that ...

Learn what sodium-ion batteries are, how they compare to lithium-ion, and whether they could become the future of energy storage.

Newcastle-headquartered energy storage solutions company Allegro Energy has unveiled a breakthrough innovation in long-duration energy storage (LDES) with Australia’s first locally manufactured ...

More recently, Betavolt announced its 3-volt diamond nuclear battery that uses nickel-63 and a diamond semiconductor using the same beta particle principle that can power a device for 50 years.

During demonstrations of the prototype battery, the researchers found that beta rays released from radiocarbon on both electrodes triggered the ruthenium-based dye on the anode to generate an electron ...

called an electron avalanche, occurs. Then the avalanche travels through the dye and the titanium dioxide effectively collects the generated electrons. The new battery also has radiocarbon in the ...

One such state, first proposed by Nobel laureate Eugene Wigner, is the Wigner crystal—a structured electron arrangement caused by their mutual repulsion. Although widely theorized, experimental ...

Whether nestled in the smallest wearable or providing back-up power for the electric grid, a battery that provides ... This creates an “electron-hole” pair, which generates a small-but-stable ...

The good news is that Windows laptops have a battery report feature that breaks down whether your battery is still kicking or on its last legs. All you need to do is enter a simple line of code.
