Fengyu Li and Yanlin Song from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with their co-workers, have designed high-performance flexible perovskite solar cells (PSCs) for wearable electronics using green printing technology.
Results for "batteries"
Low-Cost Battery from Waste Graphite
Swiss researchers have discovered a promising approach to how we might produce batteries out of waste graphite and scrap metal.
Climate Busters
Increasing the Supply of Renewable Electricity Creates Potential Energy Storage Applications for Synthetic Fuels Aggressive CO2 reduction targets are stimulating the conversion of fossil-fuel-powered electricity systems into renewable low-carbon systems. This energy...
3D Graphene-Oxide Spheres for Supercapacitors
An effective synthesis strategy via a flash-freezing and freeze-dry approach is presented, to synthesis 3D GO structures that exhibit fully accessible hierarchical porous networks for supercapacitor applications.
Defect Engineering an Efficient Bifunctional Oxygen Electrocatalyst
University of Waterloo researchers develop a bifunctional oxygen electrocatalyst based on graphene that can recharge zinc-air batteries more efficiently.
Battery Power: Electricity and Chemicals from CO2
Of interest to the field of CO2 utilization is the adaptation of the above described energy storage system into one capable of fixing CO2 into a useful product, in this particular case carbon.
A Case for CO2-Sourced Sustainable Synthetic Fuels
Is the electrification of the global fleet of automobiles and trucks truly a panacea for curbing greenhouse gas emissions, stabilizing global warming and ameliorating climate change or, rather, is it merely a way of shifting the problem from conventional internal combustion to electric vehicles?
Vision of a Sustainable Future
To address climate change, we need to reduce net anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to zero as soon as possible; that is, hopefully by 2050 or so.
