New water splitting catalyst could make it easier to generate solar fuel
28-Jan-2019
Water splitting, the process of harvesting solar energy to generate energy-dense fuels, could be simplified thanks to new research including faculty at Binghamton University, State University of New York. "The key idea is to generate a solar fuel: hydrogen gas, which can be burnt to release ...
Biodegradable, paper-based biobatteries
Easy to produce, low-cost, flexible and more efficient
10-Aug-2018
The batteries of the future may be made out of paper. Researchers at Binghamton University, State University at New York have created a biodegradable, paper-based battery that is more efficient than previously possible. For years, there has been excitement in the scientific community about the ...
Scientists build bacteria-powered battery on single sheet of paper
23-Dec-2016
Instead of ordering batteries by the pack, we might get them by the ream in the future. Researchers at Binghamton University, State University of New York have created a bacteria-powered battery on a single sheet of paper that can power disposable electronics. The manufacturing technique reduces ...
Preventing another Flint, Mich.; new research could lead to more corrosion-resistant water pipes
06-May-2016
With documented public water problems in Flint, Mich., and Hoosick Falls, N.Y., caused by corrosion, understanding how copper is affected at the atomic level is critical to avoiding problems in future pipes. Corrosion-related damage costs more than three percent of the United States' Gross ...
Researchers generate clean energy using bacteria-powered solar panel
Researchers have taken the next step in the evolution of bacteria-powered energy
13-Apr-2016
For the first time ever, researchers connected nine biological-solar (bio-solar) cells into a bio-solar panel. Then they continuously produced electricity from the panel and generated the most wattage of any existing small-scale bio-solar cells - 5.59 microwatts. "Once a functional bio-solar ...
New research could help build better fighter planes and space shuttles
06-Jan-2016
Thousands bound together are still thinner than a single strand of human hair, but with research from Binghamton University, boron nitride nanotubes may help build better fighter planes and space shuttles. A team of scientists led by Changhong Ke, associate professor of mechanical engineering at ...
Study: Atom-high steps halt oxidation of metal surfaces
06-Jan-2015
Rust never sleeps. Whether a reference to the 1979 Neil Young album or a product designed to protect metal surfaces, the phrase invokes the idea that corrosion from oxidation - the more general chemical name for rust and other reactions of metal with oxygen - is an inevitable, persistent process. ...
Study helps unlock mystery of high-temp superconductors
07-Jul-2014
A Binghamton University physicist and his colleagues say they have unlocked one key mystery surrounding high-temperature superconductivity. Their research, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, found a remarkable phenomenon in copper-oxide (cuprate) high-temperature ...
First computer-designed superconductor
11-Oct-2013
A Binghamton University scientist and his international colleagues report this week on the successful synthesis of the first superconductor designed entirely on the computer. Their findings were published in Physical Review Letters, the leading journal in the field. Aleksey Kolmogorov, assistant ...
Chemist monitors nanotechnology's environmental impact
31-Mar-2010
Interest in 'green' innovation means not just thinking big but also very, very, very small. At least that's the way Omowunmi Sadik, director of Binghamton University's Center for Advanced Sensors and Environmental Systems, sees it. She's working to develop sensors that would detect and identify ...
