But batteries will need this shape-shifting quality to be incorporated into flexible electronics, which are gaining traction for wearable health monitors. Now, researchers in ACS Energy Letters report a lithium-ion battery with entirely stretchable components, including an electrolyte layer that can expand by 5000%, and it retains its charge storage capacity after nearly 70 charge/discharge cycles.

Identification and detection of drugs, chemicals and biological molecules invisible to the human eye can be made possible through the combined technology of a cellphone camera and a Raman spectrometer — a powerful laser chemical analysis method. Dr. Peter Rentzepis, a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Texas A&M University, holds a patent for a hand-held cellphone-based Raman spectrometer system. Rentzepis’ invention allows the user to make non-invasive identifications of potentially harmful chemicals or materials in the field, especially in remote areas where laboratory spectrometers cannot be used due to their size and power needs.

𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗺 𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗽𝘆: Physicists at the University of Stuttgart under the leadership of Prof. Sebastian Loth are developing quantum microscopy which enables them for the first time to record the movement of electrons at the atomic level with both extremely high spatial and temporal resolution. Their method has the potential to enable scientists to develop materials in a much more targeted way than before. The researchers have published their findings in the renowned journal "Nature Physics". "With the method we developed, we can make things visible that no one has seen before," says Prof. Sebastian Loth, Managing Director of the Institute for Functional Matter and Quantum Technologies (FMQ) at the University of Stuttgart. "This makes it possible to settle questions about the movement of electrons in solids that have been unanswered since the 1980s." However, the findings of Loth's group are also of very practical significance for the development of new materials.

However, anywhere from 30 to 40 percent of the food that is produced ends up in landfills in the United States. What if there was a way to convert it into something we use every day? Researchers in Virginia Tech's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences are doing just that by developing biodegradable bioplastics from food waste to give those materials a new – and useful – life.

𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗜𝗦𝘆𝘀 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 #𝗔𝗜 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴: In the "#GenISys" project, researchers at the University of Wuppertal are working with two practice partners to develop generative AI models to make the construction of bottling plants more intelligent and resource-efficient in the future. The overarching aim is to promote the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in relevant sectors of the economy. Generative AI models are designed to generate new content from existing data. The models are already integrated into many business and user applications and demonstrate impressive capabilities, for example in generating human-like texts. "In the industrial production sector, however, the known potential and performance of generative AI approaches remains virtually untapped. This is partly because AI methods are not yet adapted to areas of application with very specific requirements," explains Dr Hasan Tercan, Group Leader research area "Industrial Deep Learning" at the Institute for Technologies and Management of Digital Transformation at the University of Wuppertal.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗱-𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 #𝗯𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲: Solid-state batteries have several advantages: they can store more energy and are safer than batteries with liquid electrolytes. However, they do not last as long and their capacity decreases with each #charge cycle. But it doesn't have to stay that way: Researchers are already on the trail of the causes. In the journal ACS Energy Letters, a team from HZB and Justus-Liebig-Universität, Giessen, presents a new method for precisely monitoring electrochemical reactions during the operation of a solid-state battery using photoelectron spectroscopy at BESSY II. The results help to improve battery materials and design.

𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 #𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁: A new electrolyte design for #lithium metal batteries could significantly boost the range of electric #vehicles. Researchers at ETH Zurich have radically reduced the amount of environmentally harmful fluorine required to stabilise these batteries. Lithium metal batteries are among the most promising candidates of the next generation of high-energy batteries. They can store at least twice as much energy per unit of volume as the lithium-ion batteries that are in widespread use today. This will mean, for example, that an electric car can travel twice as far on a single charge, or that a smartphone will not have to be recharged so often.

By composing an alloy made of silicon, germanium and tin, they were able to create a thermoelectric material, promising to transform the waste heat of computer processors back into electricity. With all elements coming from the 4th main group of the periodic table, these new semiconductor alloy can be easily integrated into the #CMOS process of chip production. The research findings made it onto the cover of the scientific journal ACS Applied Energy Materials.
