Organic semiconductors are thin, flexible, and extremely versatile materials that have revolutionized the world of consumer ...

Touch the back of a laptop and it often feels warm. This is because part of the energy used for computation and communication ...

Historically, the energy storage industry has often relied on policy support and fiscal subsidies. It lacked sustainable ...

Recently revealed independent testing data shows that supercapacitor auto balancing (SAB) MOSFET arrays designed into supercapacitor applications of two or more cells can reduce leakage current. By ...

Led by Luis Echegoyen, Ph.D., from UTEP and Marta Plonska-Brzezinska, Ph.D., from Poland, the team developed a supercapacitor that achieved a record level of energy storage, or capacitance. Unlike ...

Engineers have created a 'supercapacitor' made of ancient, abundant materials, that can store large amounts of energy. Made of just cement, water, and carbon black (which resembles powdered charcoal), ...

Tommy Liu builds a vehicle-mounted particulate matter monitoring system powered from harvested wind energy and an integrated ...

The benefits of energy-harvesting technology for sustainability. Details behind different types of energy harvesting. The industries that are leveraging energy-harvesting technology today and what’s ...

Unlike batteries, which store and release energy through chemical reactions, supercapacitors store energy electrostatically. This allows them to charge and discharge much faster. A supercapacitor ...

Who needs energy harvesting, the ROI and sectors close to adoption. End user and integrators from a diverse range of markets present their needs and experiences. All the technology options - from ...

Technical success can be initiated by a dramatic breakthrough or innovation, but it can also be the result of conscientious design with careful attention to execution details. We rely on both for ...

To store energy, batteries use chemistry, or rather, chemical potential. They consist of two electrical terminals (an anode and a cathode) separated by an electrolyte. When coupled to an external ...
