The ECS Toyota Young Investigator Fellowship has chosen three winners to receive $50,000 awards each for research in green energy technology. The selected fellows will also receive a one-year complimentary ECS membership and the opportunity to present and/or publish their research with ECS.
The Electrochemical Society (ECS) has removed the paywall to its digital library during Open Access Week, providing free access to over 132,000 scientific articles. This move is a precursor to ECS's Free the Science initiative, which aims to make the entire digital library open access by 2024.
A new study developed a mixed metal catalyst that enables both charge and discharge reactions in lithium-air batteries, overcoming key barriers to their development. This breakthrough offers opportunities for future research and potential applications in sustainable energy storage.
Researchers developed an enzyme-based sensor that uses sweat to detect lactate levels, indicating potential muscle fatigue, stress, and dehydration. The sensor is powered by a biofuel cell, providing a renewable power source for a sustainable wearable device.
The ECS Toyota Young Investigator Fellowship has selected three recipients to pursue innovative research in green energy technology. The fellows will receive a minimum of $50,000 each and a one-year complimentary ECS membership.
The study reveals that the internal structure of gallium nitride-based HEMTs is responsible for their high radiation tolerance. A piezoelectric field formed at the interface causes carriers to be reinjected into the two-dimensional electron gas, reducing the impact of radiation-induced defects.
The Electrochemical Society (ECS) has published its first Editors' Choice article, detailing transformative findings in the dosage and spatial distribution of lithiation. The article uses a focused Li-ion beam to probe lithiation mechanism at the nanoscale, enabling precise dosage and control.
