Thermoelectric effect is a phenomenon that utilizes temperature difference to achieve electrical transport, offering potential solutions to the energy and environmental challenges faced by humanity.
The freeze-out effect has been the primary barrier to developing solid-state batteries as powerful as their liquid-filled ...
Chemists have developed a new charge-carrying molecule that possesses liquid-like conductivity even in the solid state ( ...
Polymers are composed of very large molecules formed by a combination of different monomers (smaller and simpler molecules), which can be natural or synthetic. Polymers are the basis of many ...
Penn State researchers developed a new soft and stretchable material that can be 3D-printed. The material can be used to fabricate wearable devices, such a sensor that can be worn on a finger, as ...
Normally, when liquids solidify, their molecules become locked in place, making it much harder for ions to move and leading ...
To advance soft robotics, skin-integrated electronics and biomedical devices, researchers have developed a 3D-printed material that is soft and stretchable -- traits needed for matching the properties ...
