Ultrathin Co3O4 Layers with Large Contact Area on Carbon Fibers as High-Performance Electrode
Researchers have developed a high-performance, flexible air electrode for the Zn–air battery by devising a simple fabrication technique.
How Degradable are Biodegradable Polymers in Water?
The stability of biodegradable polymers in both fresh water and sea water is investigated to determine how degradable they really are.
Electrospray-Assisted Fabrication of Moisture-Resistant and Highly Stable Perovskite Solar Cells
Researchers from Washington University in St. Louis describe a novel technique to fabricate perovskite solar cells, which have tremendous potential in the future designs of photovoltaic technology.
Never Say Never
The argument for making synthetic fuel from CO2 using renewable electricity in an increasingly electrified world is by now a familiar one. It hinges on the unlikely scenario that lithium ion batteries will never power the massive fleet of large-volume transportation...
An Artificial Leaf for Solar Water-Splitting
Researchers develop a highly versatile and adaptable artificial leaf for solar water-splitting in various natural environments.
Trace TNT Detection: Reducing Potential Security and Environmental Threats
The enhanced emission of Cu nanocrystals/MOF composites is selectively quenched by TNT.
Mitigation and Adaptation in Polycentric Systems
The potential of polycentric governance for promoting both climate mitigation and adaptation is well established. Yet, dominant conceptualizations of polycentric governance pay scant attention to how power dynamics affect the structure and the outcomes of governance.
Energy Perspectives: Qiang Zhang Outlines Lithium Dendrite Formation
Qiang Zhang takes a moment to outline the lithium dendrite formation problem faced by researchers working on lithium-based battery technologies.
The Role of Arts in Climate Change Discourse
The arts—especially art using a combination of sounds and visuals—can inspire different ways of thinking about and engaging with the world. At a time when global climate change’s effects are accelerating, climate change communicators would be wise to consider the arts to frame and articulate these complex challenges.
