A research group has used nanosheet technology to develop a dielectric capacitor for advanced electronic and electrical power systems. Innovations in energy storage technology are vital for the ...

This video explains what capacitors are and how they function as energy-storing components in electronic systems. Capacitors temporarily hold electrical energy and help manage voltage and signal flow ...

Led by Luis Echegoyen, Ph.D., from UTEP and Marta Plonska-Brzezinska, Ph.D., from Poland, the team developed a supercapacitor that achieved a record level of energy storage, or capacitance. Unlike ...

NOVI, Mich. & NEW YORK & DÜSSELDORF, Germany & TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Asahi Kasei has begun licensing of technology for the design and manufacture of lithium-ion capacitors (LiCs) based on its ...

In context: The quest for smaller and more energy-efficient devices has led researchers to explore integrating energy storage directly onto microchips, thereby minimizing the energy losses that occur ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- Two of humanity's most ubiquitous historical materials, cement and carbon black (which resembles very fine charcoal), may form the basis for a novel, low-cost energy storage system ...

Electric cars and laptop batteries could charge up much faster and last longer thanks to a new structure that can be used to make much better capacitors in the future. When you purchase through links ...

MIT engineers have combined cement, water, and carbon black to create a supercapacitor, capable of storing large amounts of electrical energy, which could be incorporated into concrete foundations or ...

Innovations in energy storage technology are vital for the effective use of renewable energy and the mass production of electric vehicles. Current energy storage technology, such as lithium-ion ...
