Wearable devices have garnered attention for their potential as sensors that could monitor various biomarkers, a means of drug delivery, medical devices and more. In order for these wearable devices to be functional and practical, they need to have batteries that are stretchable and highly deformable. While there has been research on […]
As part of the University’s climate commitment, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) is investing S$5.7 million to ramp up solar energy production. This initiative will see over 13,000 new solar photovoltaic (PV) panels installed on the NTU Smart Campus, in addition to the University’s existing 19,000 solar panels installed in 2015. These […]
Britishvolt, a UK firm developing a £3.8 billion factory to build batteries for electric vehicles, was on Monday on the brink of collapse, reports said. The troubled battery start-up, championed by former prime minister Boris Johnson as part of his drive for a greener economy, has been developing the gigafactory in Blyth, northeastern England. But […]
When proposals for the largest solar power plant ever made for US soil began to gather pace – a plan involving several million solar panels on a flat farmland in northern Indiana – something at Connie Ehrlich seemed to have failed. Ehrlich, 63, is part of a longtime farming family in the Pulaski area, the […]
High-performance photodetectors with great detection capability have been widely deployed in our daily life, such as driverless technology, intraoperative navigated surgery, face recognition, anti-counterfeiting, and so on. However, we still face challenges as new demands are required for additional functions like excellent flexibility with no sensitivity/stability loss. Therefore, novel photosensitive materials or multi-functional composites […]
Recently, Junyou Yang and Yubo Luo from the Huazhong University of Science and Technology, in collaboration with Xin Li from the National University of Singapore, published an article titled “Enhancing the stability of planar perovskite solar cells by green and inexpensive cellulose acetate butyrate” in Journal of Energy Chemistry. Hybrid organic-inorganic halide […]
