(iSeeCars) – Electric vehicles (EVs), also known as battery electric vehicles (BEVs), use batteries to power their electric motors. Unlike their internal combustion engine counterparts that fill up at ...

From computer chips to quantum dots—technological platforms were only made possible thanks to a detailed understanding of the used solid-state materials, such as silicon or more complex semiconductor ...

The big promise of electric vehicles is that you can finally ditch the gas station and its painful prices. But is charging your EV really cheaper than filling up, or are you just trading one bill for ...

A clever mathematical tool known as virtual particles unlocks the strange and mysterious inner workings of subatomic particles. What happens to these particles within atoms would stay unexplained ...

A new chemistry breakthrough could unlock 12-minute charging and 500 miles of range for electric vehicles. The new design utilizes lithium anodes inside the battery instead of graphite, resulting in a ...

Space weather isn’t referring to rain clouds that float through the galaxy. Instead, it’s caused by massive explosions of particles that shoot out from the Sun.

"I highly recommend looking into your power company's terms and see if they offer some sort of EV rate plan." A Tesla owner in Nevada shared a charging hack that he claims has significantly improved ...

Lightning strikes are some of the most awesome demonstrations of power on Earth. We’ve all seen trees, mountains and skyscrapers struck. But if a car is struck by lightning, then what happens?

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 ...
