Headline: Batteries for airborne electric vehicles that take off and land vertically

■ Release Date: 2024.3.12

■ Published by: DOE/Oak Ridge National Laboratory

■ Keywords: battery, lithium, electrolyte

■ Abstract:

Researchers are taking cleaner transportation to the skies by creating and evaluating new batteries for airborne electric vehicles that take off and land vertically. Researchers are developing new energy-dense materials, learning how these materials degrade under extreme conditions, and developing battery control systems.

Headline: Find pearls in the soil' unveiling the magic of hydrogen production from municipal sewage

■ Release Date: 2024.3.13

■ Published by: Pohang University of Science & Technology (POSTECH)

■ Keywords: urea, catalyst, hydrogen

■ Abstract:

Scientists have developed a catalyst for the urea oxidation reaction, enhancing hydrogen generation efficiency.

Headline: Scientists develop ultra-thin semiconductor fibers that turn fabrics into wearable electronics

■ Release Date: 2024.3.13

■ Published by: Nanyang Technological University

■ Keywords: semiconductor, wearable electronics, fabrics

■ Abstract:

Scientists have developed ultra-thin semiconductor fibers that can be woven into fabrics, turning them into smart wearable electronics.

Headline: A new world of 2D material is opening up

■ Release Date: 2024.3.14

■ Published by: Linköping University

■ Keywords: energy storage, yttrium, carbon

■ Abstract:

Materials that are incredibly thin, only a few atoms thick, exhibit unique properties that make them appealing for energy storage, catalysis and water purification. Researchers have now developed a method that enables the synthesis of hundreds of new 2D materials.

Headline: Perovskite solar cells: Vacuum process may offer a short track to commercialization

■ Release Date: 2024.3.14

■ Published by: Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT)

■ Keywords: perovskite, solar cells, silicon

■ Abstract:

Which process is best suited for mass production of perovskite solar cells? While solvent-based manufacturing processes are used in laboratories around the world, vacuum vapor-phase deposition processes are still the standard for the production of thin films for photovoltaics or organic light-emitting diodes. A new study that reveals major differences in the scientific discussion of these production processes.

Headline: Researchers prove fundamental limits of electromagnetic energy absorption

■ Release Date: 2024.3.14

■ Published by: Duke University

■ Keywords: electromagnetic, energy, radiation

■ Abstract:

Electrical engineers have determined the theoretical fundamental limit for how much electromagnetic energy a transparent material with a given thickness can absorb. The finding will help engineers optimize devices designed to block certain frequencies of radiation while allowing others to pass through, for applications such as stealth or wireless communications.

Headline: An electricity generator inspired by the drinking bird toy powers electronics with evaporated water

■ Release Date: 2024.3.14

■ Published by: Cell Press

■ Keywords: electricity, energy, fuel

■ Abstract:

Inspired by the classic drinking bird toy, scientists have developed an engine that efficiently converts energy from water evaporation into electricity to power small electronics. The device produces energy outputs exceeding 100 volts -- much higher than other techniques that generate electricity from water -- and can operate for several days using only 100 milliliters of water as fuel, according to a new study.

Headline: Revolutionary method developed for mass-producing polymer solid electrolytes

■ Release Date: 2024.3.15

■ Published by: Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology(UNIST)

■ Keywords: polymer, electrolyte, battery

■ Abstract:

Scientists have unveiled a groundbreaking technique for mass-producing polymer solid electrolytes, crucial components in batteries.
