However, its use in energy storage has been limited due to the low conductivity and surface area of commercially available PEDOT. The UCLA team overcame these limitations by developing a unique ...

A team of international researchers has successfully created a new type of highly conductive 2D polymer, opening the door to ...

Scientists have developed a hybrid material that switches between conducting and insulating states while maintaining ...

Some metals are much better at conducting electricity than others. Copper is a very good conductor. And so is aluminium. Whereas stainless steel conducts, but not quite as well. Other materials ...

There are many electric vehicles in Norway, and each contains many electrical conductors. These electrical conductors ...

Electric sparks are used for welding, powering electronics, killing germs or for igniting the fuel in some car engines. Despite their usefulness, they are hard to control in open space, they split ...

Niobium phosphide, however, is different. According to researchers at Stanford University, US, a very thin film of this non-crystalline topological semimetal conducts electricity better than copper ...

Am. Chem. Soc. 2024, DOI: 10.1021/jacs.4c13792). Materials mixing electronic and ionic conductivity could increase the energy density of batteries as well as find applications in membranes ...

Students in this field will learn about the conduction of electricity through gases or a vacuum as well as through semiconducting materials. The discipline includes topics like image and signal ...
