Producing chirality, a property found throughout nature, through large-scale self-assembly could lead to applications in sensing, machine perception and more The illustration shows how the honeycomb structure reconfigures into a pinwheel structure. The ability to make these twisted structures at
Study debunks accepted assumptions of charging mechanism in rechargeable aqueous zinc-manganese battery cells
While scientists have hoped that rechargeable zinc-manganese dioxide batteries could be developed into a viable alternative for grid storage applications, engineers at the University of Illinois Chicago and their colleagues identified the atomistic mechanism of charge and discharge in such batteries.
Prof. Huigang Zhang of the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Process Engineering (IPE) and Dr Jun Lu of Argonne National Laboratory in the United States discovered a “volcano-shaped” link between polysulfide adsorption and catalytic activity in lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries.
