Microbial fuel cells, as they're called, have been around for more than 100 years. They work a little like a battery, with an anode, cathode and electrolyte – but rather than drawing electricity from ...

Battery technology is reaching its performance limit and may not be able to cope with the next generation of power hungry cell phones, laptops, digital cameras, camrecorders, PDAs and military ...

Researchers have identified hexagonal perovskite-related oxides as materials with exceptionally high proton conductivity and thermal stability. Their unique crystal structure and large number of ...
