Li-ion batteries power almost everything these days, but their star is waning as more promising chemistries are developed. Scientists at the Technische Universität Wien (TU Wien) in Austria have ...

An oxygen-ion-battery has been invented, based on ceramic materials. If it degrades, it can be regenerated, therefore it potentially has an extremely long lifespan. Also, it does not require any rare ...

Austrian scientists have created a lab-scale, solid-state, oxygen ion battery based on mixed ionic electronic conducting (MIEC), which is a special class of non-flammable electroceramic materials. The ...

(Nanowerk News) Lithium-ion batteries are ubiquitous today - from electric cars to smartphones. But that does not mean that they are the best solution for all areas of application. TU Wien has now ...

Researchers from Austria have invented a new kind of battery called an oxygen-ion battery. The battery is greener, longer lasting, and less flammable than the current near-ubiquitous lithium-ion ...

Figure 1: Schematic illustration of the oxygen-ion incorporation pathway. Figure 2: Evolution of oxygen species in the electrochemical double-layer with overpotential. To quantify the dynamics of ...

As renewable energy sources become more efficient and affordable to adopt, ensuring that any excess energy generated is properly stored for future use is crucial to preventing energy wastage. This is ...

Roissy-en-France, Salt Lake City 06/06/2024 - Novair, the world's leading manufacturer of on-site oxygen and nitrogen generators, and American Oxygen, a start-up developing ceramic technologies for ...

Lithium-ion batteries are ubiquitous today - from electric cars to smartphones. But that does not mean that they are the best solution for all areas of application. TU Wien has now succeeded in ...
