A battery electrolyte that is solid at normal temperatures yet still conducts ions could make lithium batteries safer and longer lasting by replacing flammable liquids.

The work, led by Chunsheng Wang at the University of Maryland, offers a relatively simple way to make lithium-ion batteries more durable using standard materials and ...

Electric vehicles have raced ahead on performance and price, but their batteries still struggle with durability, charging ...

As global demand for sustainable energy surges, the performance ceiling of current battery technologies is increasingly tied to how efficiently ions ...

Researchers from the School of Engineering at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have pioneered a ...

Achieving high-energy density remains a key objective for advanced energy storage systems. However, challenges, such as poor cathode conductivity, anode dendrite formation, polysulfide shuttling, and ...

The research, published today in Nature Communications, focuses on how cancer cells keep their chromosomes intact so they can continue dividing relentlessly. Normally, every time a cell divides, the ...

Increasing temperature affects plant development, with the assumption that roots are among the tissues particularly sensitive to heat stress (HS). However, a comprehensive analysis of the impact of ...

The image shows a metaphase spindle in a human ovarian cancer cell, surrounded by interphase cells. Microtubules are color-coded according to imaging depth, and chromosomes are shown in gray. Most ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. Another strong candidate, lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) are ...

A new study shows, for the first time, that cow cells can naturally become immortal—continuing to divide indefinitely without genetic modification or any abnormal transformation. This overturns ...
