• Mini-fuel cell generates electricity using the body's sugar
  

  Glucose is the most important energy source in the human body. Scientists at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) now want to use the body's sugar as an energy source for medicinal implants. They have developed a glucose fuel cell which convert more

• Light may increase performance of fuel cells and lithium-ion batteries
  

  Lithium-ion batteries, fuel cells and many other devices depend on the high mobility of ions in order to work properly. But there a large number of obstacles to such mobility. A research team led by Jennifer L. M. Rupp of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and Harry L. Tuller of the Massachuse more

• Exploding and weeping ceramics
  

  From coffee cups to bathroom tiles, ceramics are brittle.  Subject to the slightest deformation, they shatter. On the other end of the spectrum of materials, some of the most deformable materials known - that also support large stresses while they deform - are shape memory alloys.  The origin of thi more
