Interface engineering in rechargeable batteries — A trade-off between functionality and detrimental effects
Rechargeable batteries are composite systems with a high density of interfaces. Learning which interfacial phenomena occur under operation could help prevent detrimental effects.
Tierui Zhang: Scientific research is a process of exploring the unknown
Celebrating “10 years of Advanced Energy Materials Research,” Tierui Zhang opens up about his scientific career and his rather unique hobby of chemistry stamp collecting.
Unlocking the secrets of herbicide-resistant weeds
Investigating metabolic resistance mechanisms of waterhemp, a weed species damaging crop production, could help researchers identify long-term approaches to sustainably manage the species.
The three colors of hydrogen
Hydrogen is a promising sustainable energy source, and exciting steps are being made towards realizing a hydrogen-powered, zero emissions infrastructure.
