A 2024 review by Sau, Orimo, and co-workers reveals universal design principles for fast ion conductors by organizing materials according to their structural frameworks rather than chemical ...

Using a combination of simulation and experimental techniques, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Material Science and Engineering researchers have been able to identify the electric double layer ...

Scientists unveil a solid electrolyte that moves lithium as fast as liquids, promising safer, fast-charging batteries.

Normally, when liquids solidify, their molecules become locked in place, making it much harder for ions to move and leading to a steep decrease in ionic conductivity. Now, scientists have synthesized ...
