Scientists seek stable, high-energy batteries designed for the electric grid.
How positively and negatively charged ions behave at the interface between a solid surface and an aqueous solution has been investigated by researchers from the Cluster of Excellence RESOLV at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum, its sister research network CALSOLV in Berkeley, and the University of Evry in Paris.
Alkynes have many uses in industry. Until now, it was assumed that gold- or platinum-based catalysts were absolutely necessary for certain chemical reactions with alkynes.
Catalytic transformation of syngas (a mixture of H2 and CO), an important platform for the utilization of non-oil carbon resources including coal, natural gas, CO2, and even carbon-containing waste, into hydrocarbon products has drawn much research attention in recent years.
A team of researchers from the U.S. National Science Foundation Center for Sustainable Polymers based at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities have developed a chemical technology of combined fermentation and chemical refining that can produce petroleum-like liquids from renewable plants.
CRAIC Technologies introduces Scorpii™, an advanced illumination system for use with CRAIC UV-visible-NIR microspectrophotometers.
Due to retirement, the previous managing directors of FAULHABER will be handing over the reins to the new five-person management team.

In an article recently published in the open-access journal Light: Science & Applications, researchers constructed a specific GeSn-on-insulator (GeSnOI) stack with the help of stressor layers as dielectric optical claddings. They also demonstrated that GeSnOI is suitable for monolithic integration of planar Group-IV semiconductor lasers on photonic platforms in the near- and mid-infrared wavelength range.

Researchers from Switzerland and China recently developed a process to reuse the extracted carbon dioxide back into a biogas upgrader using an ionic polymer catalysis method and thus obtained epoxides as a by-product. This research has been published in the journal Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research.
