Carbon nanotubes play a central role in the design. According to the authors, the composite structure built around the nanotubes prevents excessive growth of the primary particles and supplies highly conductive pathways throughout the material. In electrochemical tests, the composite…
HKUST researchers report an anode-free lithium metal battery strategy that reached 467 Wh kg-1 in a pouch cell and 90% capacity retention after 200 cycles in a coin cell. Researchers at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have developed a…
A 3D-printed WS2/TiO2@C anode combining sulfur vacancies and a defect-rich TiO2 interphase delivered markedly higher lithium storage capacity than WS2 or MXene alone. The second half of the strategy lies in the electrode architecture itself. By integrating the interphase-regulated material into a…
Lithium is essential for rechargeable batteries used in electric vehicles and renewable energy storage, but recovering it from natural salt-lake brines remains difficult because those solutions often contain large amounts of magnesium and other dissolved salts. Similar challenges arise in…
Strontium-modified Co3O4 nanoparticles made by solution combustion showed the best supercapacitor performance at the 2Sr composition, with a specific capacitance of 56.29 F g⁻¹ at 10 mV s⁻¹. Researchers report that modifying cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanoparticles with strontium can improve their performance as supercapacitor electrode…
Khadija Omar Said, a doctoral student in the John and Willie Leone Family Department of Mineral and Energy Engineering and lead author on the paper, said that integrating battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) with physics-informed artificial intelligence and automated control systems is…
Researchers from two Fraunhofer Institutes are exploring new approaches to improving the performance and lifespan of battery systems. One idea is to use lithium itself as an active anode material in lithium-metal anodes, thereby achieving higher specific capacity in battery…
Rechargeable zinc–air batteries are widely regarded as promising next-generation energy storage systems, yet their practical performance is fundamentally limited by sluggish oxygen reduction and evolution reactions at the air cathode. Dual-site catalysts and light synergy redefine zincâair battery…
SANTA CLARA, Calif. & CHICAGO, October 27, 2026--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A), a global leader in analytical and clinical laboratory technologies, and the University of Chicago, one of the world's leading research universities, today announced a scientific collaboration to establish the…
A new manufacturing process could help perovskite solar cells withstand heat and humidity for longer while maintaining their ability to turn sunlight into electricity. In laboratory tests, cells made with the method retained 95% of their initial efficiency after 1,000 hours under…
