Flower-Powered Carbon Doped With Manganese Boosts Supercapacitors and Solar
5+ hour, 19+ min ago (55+ words) Researchers in India have transformed the delicate purple-and-white flowers of Bauhinia variegata, the mountain ebony tree, into a high-performance carbon electrode material that works in two very different clean-energy devices at once. In a study published in the Springer journal…...
The Slow Drain: Tiny Electronic Currents Threaten Solid-State Battery
11+ hour, 21+ min ago (583+ words) Solid-state batteries have been heralded as the next great leap in energy storage, promising higher energy densities, improved safety and longer lifetimes than the lithium-ion cells that power everything from smartphones to electric vehicles....
Unlocking the Microscopic Origins of Dendrite Formation in Solid-State Batteries
23+ hour, 42+ min ago (378+ words) Lithium metal anodes offer a theoretical energy density nearly double that of conventional graphite anodes—454 Wh kg?¹ compared to 314 Wh kg?¹ at the cell level when paired with lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide cathode. Sep 12 2026 Lithium metal anodes offer a…...
Graphene Oxide and Polymer Pairing Paves Way for Dendrite-Free Solid-State
1+ day, 1+ hour ago (854+ words) Solid-state batteries have long been heralded as the holy grail of energy storage, promising electric vehicles that drive farther, charge faster and, crucially, catch fire far less often. Yet the materials at the heart of this revolution have stubbornly refused…...
Dual‑ion co‑storage via solvation structure tuning toward ultrafast and durable zinc‑organic batteries
2+ day, 10+ hour ago (627+ words) Why This Electrolyte Matters KCl is introduced into a 2 M ZnCl2 aqueous electrolyte. The high concentration of KCl not only provides additional Cl⁻ ions but also fundamentally reorganizes the Zn2+ solvation environment and the hydrogen-bonding network of water. In the conventional ZnCl2 electrolyte,…...
Swiss researchers built a living battery made of fungi that feeds on sugar and dissolves itself when the job is done, and it can already power a sensor for days just by harnessing the natural metabolism of two complementary fungal species printed alive into biodegradable ink
2+ day, 14+ hour ago (704+ words) Swiss researchers built a living battery made of fungi that feeds on sugar and dissolves itself when the job is done — already powering sensors for days. Most batteries are rigid, toxic, and destined for a landfill. They’re charged, depleted, and…...
Zinc-Air Battery Design Boosts Power by 80% Without Changing Chemistry - News and Statistics
2+ day, 17+ hour ago (434+ words) At the Institute of Materials Science of Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC) in Spain, a research team has devised a fresh architecture for zinc-air batteries capable of raising power output by as much as 80% while leaving the underlying chemistry untouched. Conductive components are…...
A hidden leak in solids - Nature Energy
2+ day, 18+ hour ago (230+ words) Nature Energy (2026) Cite this article Solid electrolytes have long been treated as materials that block electronic conduction while enabling fast lithium-ion transport. Two studies now show that residual electronic conductivity can drive self-discharge in solid-state batteries at open circuit, particularly…...
Crystal structure evolution from SBF to SCBF via Ca2+ doping
3+ day, 1+ hour ago (68+ words) (IMAGE) EurekAlert! Schematic illustration showing how Ca2+ doping at the Sm3+ site widens the Fe-O-Fe bond angle and shortens the Fe-O bond length, improving electron transport and oxygen kinetics in the SCBF electrode material. Huang Lab, Xinjiang University News organizations may use…...
