Concrete already builds our world, and an MIT-invented variant known as electron-­conducting carbon concrete (ec 3, ...

The industry currently navigates a complex duality where acute raw material scarcity clashes with soaring high-tech demand, ...

Supercapacitors—also known as ultracapacitors—store energy similarly to batteries. However, they dispense power extremely quickly instead of over hours. As high-power-density energy storage systems, ...

Graphene supercapacitors are moving from lab curiosity to serious contender for the next wave of electric vehicle energy storage. By pairing the near-instant charging of capacitors with the high ...

Researchers at the Department of Instrumentation and Applied Physics (IAP), Indian Institute of Science (IISc), have designed a novel ultramicro supercapacitor, a tiny device capable of storing an ...

Ultracapacitors store electrical energy through static charge separation in a double-layer of electrodes, instead of chemical reactions like in batteries. This allows them to charge and discharge ...

Scientists have reported unprecedented performance results for a supercapacitor electrode. The researchers fabricated electrodes using a printable graphene aerogel to build a porous three-dimensional ...

Imagine turning fruit waste into technology that stores electricity. This would reduce food waste and promote clean energy storage. Postdoctoral researcher Vianney Ngoyi Kitenge transformed mangosteen ...

WHEN IT COMES to putting on pace, some electric vehicles rely not only on a battery to deliver the necessary wattage, but also on a second source of power called a supercapacitor. The battery serves ...
