In most conventional semiconductors, thermal conductivity decreases as temperature rises because heat-carrying lattice vibrations—called phonons—scatter more frequently.

A joint research team led by Professor Jung Ho Yoon from the School of Advanced Materials Science and Engineering at Sungkyunkwan University (President Yoo Ji-Beom) has reported for the first time ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has demonstrated that liquid electrolytes, when frozen, can still facilitate lithium-ion conduction sufficient for battery operation—challenging the traditional ...

Engineers have discovered an unexpected link between two very different realms of physics: the behavior of electrons in ...

Solid-state batteries could be safer and more energy-dense than today’s lithium-ion technology, but finding materials that allow ions to move quickly through solid electrolytes has been difficult.

A team of researchers at the Technical University of Munich and ́Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne has developed an innovative computational approach combining machine learning and Raman ...

Artificial intelligence is threatening many jobs, and those in science seem unlikely to be exempt. So which jobs are most at risk? Seeking answers, Nature spoke to more than four dozen researchers ...
