Chinese scientists have created a new type of battery that uses hydrogen ions to store and release energy, which could offer a safer alternative to conventional lithium-based batteries. The ...

Ionic transport has been studied extensively over the years for energy devices such as fuel cells and batteries using Li+, H+, Ag+, Cu+, F-, and O2-. Yet as researchers point out in a recent report, ...

Hydride ion (H-), with their low mass and high redox potential, are considered promising charge carriers for next-generation electrochemical devices. However, the lack of an efficient electrolyte with ...

A research team led by Prof. Ping Chen at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), reported in Nature on September 17 that they created a new core–shell ...

Identifying hydrogen and hydride phases can be difficult using traditional microanalysis methods. Because of its atomic structure, hydrogen does not release distinctive X-rays when exposed to ...

Perovskite hydrides are promising materials for various emerging energy technologies, but measuring their intrinsic hydride-ion conductivity is difficult. In a recent study, researchers address this ...

DALIAN -- A team of Chinese scientists has developed the first hydride ion prototype battery, laying a solid foundation for China's green energy development. The team's findings were published on ...

The crisis of carbon-emissions-fueled climate change has sent humankind on a treasure hunt for cleaner sources of energy. Hydrogen, the forerunner among clean fuels, has proven difficult to tame ...

Superconductivity came with a lot of unfulfilled promises. Power without loss? Sign me up. Superconducting magnetic resonance imaging magnets? They’re, ahem, cool. And CERN couldn’t operate without ...

Ionic transport has been studied extensively over the years for energy devices such as fuel cells and batteries using Li+, H+, Ag+, Cu+, F-, and O2-. Yet as Genki Kobayashi and Ryoji Kanno point out ...
