Skoltech scientists in collaboration with researchers from the University of Stuttgart, the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and the Russian Quantum Center have achieved the first systematic ...

A newly developed, highly conductive copper wire could find applications in the electric grid, as well as in homes and businesses. The finding defies what's been thought about how metals conduct ...

Some of the most revealing signals about human health are carried in fluids that are almost impossible to measure.

The natural world possesses its own intrinsic electrical grid composed of a global web of tiny bacteria-generated nanowires in the soil and oceans that “breathe” by exhaling excess electrons. In a new ...

Defying conventional scientific knowledge about electrical conductivity, the addition of a common carbon compound to copper to make electrical wires results in significant performance enhancements, ...

A group of scientists has created a quantum material where electricity can flow without losing energy as heat. Until now, this was only seen in ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Polymers are ideal for energy storage for transportation due to their light weight, scalability, low-cost manufacturing, and high dielectric strength. Dielectrics are materials ...
