U.S. scientists used density functional theory to reveal how sodium ions are stored in nanoporous carbon anodes for ...

These loop styles correspond to different memory mechanisms, including ion-ion interaction, ion-surface charge adsorption/desorption, surface charge inversion, and ion concentration polarization.

Recent research has shown that such water structures and interactions with the layered materials play an important role in giving the latter their high ion-storage capacities, all of which in turn ...

Achieving high-energy density remains a key objective for advanced energy storage systems. However, challenges, such as poor cathode conductivity, anode dendrite formation, polysulfide shuttling, and ...

As global demand for sustainable energy surges, the performance ceiling of current battery technologies is increasingly tied to how efficiently ions ...

Ion exchange separates components in a sample depending on their relative ionic strengths and interaction with the stationary phase. The stationary phase is a charged substance that selectively ...

On the top, three different methods tried to synthesize dilithium hydroquinone and the corresponding characteristics are shown. On the bottom is the synthesis mechanism of obtaining pure dilithium ...

Quantum computers could rapidly solve complex problems that would take the most powerful classical supercomputers decades to ...
