The chemistry that can provide power from metals makes those metals degrade over time and there's not much we can do about it.
At the heart of all lithium-ion batteries is a simple reaction: Lithium ions dissolved in an electrolyte solution "intercalate" or insert themselves into a solid electrode during battery discharge.
Head to the iOS Settings page, then tap Battery: Here you’ll see details of your recent battery usage, together with the apps that you’ve been using the most (tap View All Battery Usage for more ...
Lithium intercalation is the process by which lithium ions insert themselves into the solid electrode of a lithium-ion battery. MIT researchers have shown that as lithium ions (green) move from an ...
Explore the fascinating world of science with our latest experiment where we demonstrate how to generate 130 volts from a simple 3-volt battery. In this video, you'll learn the step-by-step process to ...
Researchers now have a clearer picture of the chemical mechanisms underlying lithium-ion batteries—and it could lead to faster, more efficient batteries for electric vehicles, portable electronics, ...
Amazfit's Helio Strap looks like a Whoop and has similar sensors as a Whoop, for a fraction of the price—and no subscription. But does it really do everything Whoop does?
We interviewed Lego designers Carl Merriam and Simon Kent to unearth some of the brick Game Boy’s Easter eggs.
Forget cell-to-pack and cell-to-body battery designs. This EV battery company is proposing something entirely different.
A new diagnostic metric combines charge data and environmental factors like traffic patterns, elevation changes, and ambient temperature to generate real-time predictions about whether an EV battery ...
College football — and really, any NCAA sport — looks a whole lot different nowadays than it did even a decade ago. NIL has played arguably the biggest role in that. In 2021, the NCAA officially ...
By solving a century-old physics problem, the Cambridge collaboration has unlocked a powerful new path toward creating highly efficient, easily manufactured solar cells to accelerate the shift to ...
