A research team from the East China Normal University in Shanghai, Shanghai University, and the Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Sciences in Beijing, China, have taken inspiration from marine organisms that can switch their cell respiration between aerobic and anaerobic modes by using different materials as electron acceptors. The researchers have designed a new power […]

Calcium ion battery chemistry with double the capacity of lithium ion now has a potential battery electrode solution. (Link is to a pdf download.) Toyohashi University of Technology (TUT) researchers have demonstrated calcium ion batteries (CIBs) using pigment based electrodes such as Prussian Blue and its analogues. The CIBs showed excellent cyclability of discharge and […]
