Thermoelectric power generators that make electrical power from waste heat would be a useful tool to reduce greenhouse gas emissions if it weren't for a most vexing problem: the need to make electrica...
阅读全文If a ban were introduced on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars, and they were replaced by electric cars, the result would be a great reduction in carbon dioxide emissions. That is the finding of n...
阅读全文Nano-sized particles have been engineered in a new way to improve detection of tumors within the body and in biopsy tissue, a research team in Sweden reports. The advance could enable identifying earl...
阅读全文From the biggest bridges to the smallest medical implants, sensors are everywhere, and for good reason: The ability to sense and monitor changes before they become problems can be both cost-saving and...
阅读全文If you have ever tried to chip a mussel off a seawall or a barnacle off the bottom of a boat, you will understand that we could learn a great deal from nature about how to make powerful adhesives. Eng...
阅读全文The fabrication device for the battery revolution looks quite unconspicuous: It is a modified, commercially available 3D printer, located in a room in the Empa laboratory building. But the real innova...
阅读全文Left- or right-handedness is a symmetry property that many macroscopic objects also exhibit and which is of immense importance, particularly for the bioactivity of organic molecules. Chirality is also...
阅读全文Mussels survive by sticking to rocks in the fierce waves or tides underwater. Materials mimicking this underwater adhesion are widely used for skin or bone adhesion, for modifying the surface of a sca...
阅读全文病原微生物诱导免疫细胞产生的活性氧(ROS)和活性氮(RNS)自由基在感染介导的病理发展过程,及其引发的内在生物体抵抗效应方面起到重要作用。其中,活性氧(O2•-, •OH, H2O2)和活性氮(NO, ONOO−)自由基分别来...
阅读全文氢能具有清洁可再生等优势,是最有潜力替代传统化石燃料的新型能源。电解水制氢是在新能源快速发展背景下,完善清洁能源消纳长效机制以及实现电网和气网互通的重要手段。质子交换膜(PEM)电解槽是高效的电解水装置,...
阅读全文近年来,化学合成和数据科学的交叉导致了一些新兴工具的出现,包括用于逆合成和反应预测的算法,以及用于高通量、自动化合成的机器人。近日,来自美国密歇根大学安娜堡分校的Tim Cernak、普林斯顿大学的Abigail G. D...
阅读全文在这个合辑中,我们收集了Cell Press旗下期刊Joule中有关锂离子电池的最新文章。
阅读全文Lithium is a vital element in the batteries that power electric vehicles, but soaring lithium demand is expected to exhaust land-based reserves b...
阅读全文Nuclear detonations unleash an astonishing amount of destructive force. But the extremepressureandtemperaturethat they generate also makes nuclear blasts a cauldron of chemical creation, capable of de...
阅读全文Skoltech scientists have studied the hydroxyl defects in LiFePO4, a widely used cathode material in commercial lithium-ion batteries, contributing t...
