Researchers at Rice University developed a simple method using acid bubbles to significantly improve the stability and lifespan of CO2 electroreduction systems, enabling over 4,500 hours of stable operation by preventing salt buildup that typically causes system failure, thus advancing scalable and sustainable fuel production from CO2.
Researchers from the University of Cambridge have made a surprising discovery that challenges conventional wisdom in the field of electrochemical devices. They found that in conjugated polymer electrodes, the movement of "holes" (empty spaces for electrons) can be the limiting factor in the charging process, contrary to the belief that ions are slower. By manipulating the material's structure, scientists can regulate the movement of holes and improve charging efficiency. This breakthrough has significant implications for bioelectronics, energy storage, and brain-like computing, paving the way for the development of cutting-edge medical devices, wearable technologies, and more efficient energy storage solutions.
A study by researchers at the University of Cambridge challenges the conventional understanding of the charging process in electrochemical devices. The study focuses on conjugated polymer electrodes used in bioelectronics and reveals that the movement of "holes" (empty spaces for electrons) can be the limiting factor in the charging process, contrary to standard knowledge. By manipulating the material's microscopic structure, scientists can regulate the movement of holes and improve the charging speed. This discovery opens up new possibilities for advanced materials and improved performance in fields such as energy storage, bioelectronics, and brain-like computing.
