An international research team led by the University of Bayreuth has discovered a metal that combines electrical conductivity ...

Dr. Seon Joon Kim and his team at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST)'s Convergence Research Center for SEIF have developed a high-conductivity amphiphilic MXene material that can be ...

Superconductivity is a phenomenon where certain materials can conduct electricity with zero resistance. Obviously, this has ...

Macroscopic fibres made up of carbon nanotubes exhibit properties far below theoretical predictions and even much lower than those for conventional carbon fibres. Here we report improvements of ...

A new stretchy material conducts electricity about as well as bare metal and could be used to make large-scale stretchy electric circuits for displays, transistors, or lighting. The biggest challenge ...

Geophysicists have made the first large-scale picture of the electrical conductivity of the gigantic underground plume of hot and partly molten rock that feeds the Yellowstone supervolcano. The image ...

Scientists have succeeded in theoretically determining the electrical conductivity of NaCl solution (salt water) in a high-temperature and high-pressure environment at ground depths ranging from 10 to ...

A diamond material that can conduct electricity while maintaining its ultra-hardness has been created by scientists in China. The team said the new material could be used in a wide range of ...

The natural world possesses its own intrinsic electrical grid composed of a global web of tiny bacteria-generated nanowires in the soil and oceans that “breathe” by exhaling excess electrons. In a new ...

Bacteria can carry electrical currents and can use electricity for power. An international team of scientists has now found that bacteria can act like power lines, and send electrical currents over ...
