Scientists observe the real-time ultrafast bonding of lithium ions with the solvents, in the same process that happens during charging and discharging of lithium batteries, and conclude that a new ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue researchers have created a transparent polymer film that also conducts electricity, introducing an inexpensive organic material for applications such as the screens of ...

Scientists have added something new to a family of engineered, high-tech materials called metal-organic frameworks: the ability to conduct electricity. Conductive MOFs have the potential for use in a ...

Using an advanced imaging technology, known as cryogenic electron microscopy, a team at Penn State developed a deeper understanding of a material that had previously confused researchers. UNIVERSITY ...
