Substrate computing harvests energy from the structure itself

Researchers are developing a new technology known as substrate computing. This will allow sensing, communication and diagnostic computing, all within the substrate - the building material - of a structure, using energy harvested from the structure itself.

Alphabet Energy, Inc.

Alphabet Energy is a company that's focused on developing, designing and manufacturing thermoelectric waste heat recovery products based on exclusive IP from Michigan State University and the Berkeley National Labs

Promise for higher efficiency quantum dot solar cells

Solar cells made out of lead sulfide quantum dots could eventually offer a cheaper, more flexible alternative to ones made using silicon, but they are currently much less efficient.

Super stable garnet ceramics ideal for high-energy lithium batteries

Scientists have discovered exceptional properties in a garnet material that could enable development of higher-energy battery designs.

The world's most powerful thermoelectric generator

The world's most powerful thermoelectric generator, which captures exhaust heat and converts it into electricity.

Solar energy that doesn't block the view

A team of researchers has developed a new type of solar concentrator that when placed over a window creates solar energy while allowing people to actually see through the window.

Multifunctional graphene nanocomposite foams for space applications

Materials combined with a small amount of nanoparticles offer new possibilities in the synthesizing of multifunctional materials.

XG Sciences, Inc.

Common materials lead to new thermoelectric material

By using common materials found pretty much anywhere there is dirt, a team of researchers have developed a new thermoelectric material.

Thermoelectric material is world's best

Northwestern University scientists claim they have developed a thermoelectric material that is the best in the world at converting waste heat to electricity.

Microbes generate electricity while cleaning up nuclear waste

Researchers at Michigan State University have unraveled the mystery of how microbes generate electricity while cleaning up nuclear waste and other toxic metals.

Airliners become electric vehicles

Aircraft are becoming more electric even to the extent of having electric traction just like an electric car. Curiously this is starting at the light and heavy end, with medium sized feeder aircraft adopting electrification later.

Shining a light on research

Monash University is involved in two promising areas of science research that could deliver low cost, no-emission alternatives for our future fuel and energy needs.
