Conventional lithium-ion batteries are known to present a fire risk, and can even cause explosions in certain cases. The ...

Auroras are one of Earth’s most captivating natural phenomena, painting the night sky with vibrant colors. While scientists ...

The limited fast-charging capability and safety concerns caused by lithium dendrite growth have long hindered the development of high-performance graphite anodes in lithium-ion batteries. While ...

Enamel formation, or amelogenesis, is an intricate developmental process in which specialised epithelial cells known as ameloblasts secrete enamel matrix proteins and orchestrate the mineralisation of ...

Formations called dendrites grow in lithium-ion batteries and may continue to grow until causing an internal short circuit, which results in battery failure and possible fire. Researchers have now ...

Researchers have achieved real-time capture of the ionization process and subsequent structural changes in gas-phase molecules through an enhanced mega-electronvolt ultrafast electron diffraction (MeV ...

The W value, defined as the average energy required to form an ion pair, has been measured for xenon for bombarding electrons in the energy range 0 to 50 eV and for photons of energy between 12 and 90 ...

The influence of bromide ion on the formation of nonpurgeable organic bromine and nonpurgeable organic chlorine was not studied previously because no analytical technique existed that could separately ...

Ion-imprinted carbon dots detect cadmium at low nanomolar levels with a simple light readout, enabling portable water ...

Researchers at the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) have demonstrated that incorporating graphene can ...
