Electrochemical processes in devices like solar cells, fuel cells, lithium batteries, and water desalination systems rely on the safe, efficient, and robust transport of anions and cations between ...

As part of the goal of tackling climate change, more and more people are using electric vehicles, which produce just a fraction of the carbon dioxide emissions as their gasoline-powered counterparts.

When ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) and mass spectrometry (MS) were first combined in a commercial instrument more than a decade ago, users had limited options. If they wanted the analytical power ...

The MIT study has created a new model, called the Coupled Ion-Electron Transfer (CIET) model, to advance lithium-ion batteries. The new model redefines the fundamental chemical reaction known as ...

“What a time it is to be a battery chemist—on paper, some are even multimillionaires,” says Jerry Barker, chief scientist and founder of the battery firm Faradion and a chemist who has been ...

Lithium-ion batteries are the most popular battery storage option today, controlling more than 90% of the global grid battery storage market, according to some estimates. However, the lithium-ion ...
