Currently, the world's energy demand mainly depends on fossil fuels being a limited resource. The consumption of fossil fuels leads to emission of carbon dioxide (CO 2) that is one of the major ...

The link between oxygen redox and structural disorder in lithium-rich layered electrodes has been challenging to unravel. A theoretical framework for the link between structural disorder, subsequent ...

The intricacies of how a molecule of oxygen (O 2) on a silver surface separates into two oxygen atoms have been determined by RIKEN chemists. This knowledge will help scientists to optimize ...

Lithium-rich layered oxides have emerged as a new model for designing the next generation of cathode materials for batteries to assist the transition to a greener energy system. The unique oxygen ...

World first: chemists from the University of Würzburg have, for the first time ever, succeeded in creating a stable triple bond between the elements boron and oxygen. This success is reported in the ...
