Multifunctional catalyst for poison-resistant hydrogen fuel cells
28-Jun-2017
Japanese collaboration develops catalyst that can oxidize both hydrogen and carbon monoxide to produce energy Demand for eco-friendly fuel sources is increasing as the goal of weaning off our reliance on fossil fuels becomes commonly recognized. Hydrogen represents a possible sustainable fuel ...
Radioactive cesium concentrates in glass particles
Fukushima fallout in Tokyo not water or rain solulable
27-Jun-2016
New research shows that most of the radioactive fallout which landed on downtown Tokyo a few days after the Fukushima accident was concentrated and deposited in non-soluble glass microparticles, as a type of 'glassy soot'. This meant that most of the radioactive material was not dissolved in rain ...
Innovative catalyst fabrication method may yield breakthrough in fuel cell development
10-Mar-2016
The successful future of fuel cells relies on improving the performance of the catalysts they use. Gold nanoparticles have been cited as an ideal solution, but creating a uniform, useful catalyst has proven elusive. However, a team of researchers at Kyushu University's International Institute for ...
Lifetime breakthrough promising for low-cost and efficient OLED displays and lights
03-Mar-2016
With just a tiny tweak, researchers at Kyushu University greatly increased the device lifetime of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) that use a recently developed class of molecules to convert electricity into light with the potential for increased efficiency at a lower cost in future displays ...
New process enables easier isolation of carbon nanotubes
25-Jan-2016
Manufacture of longer, thinner, and uncontaminated carbon nanotubes, and successfully isolating them, have been ongoing challenges for researchers. A newly developed method has opened up new possibilities in carbon nanotube development. Researchers at Kyushu University's Department of Applied ...
New material approach should increase solar cell efficiency
25-Apr-2013
“When designing next generation solar energy conversion systems, we must first develop ways to more efficiently utilize the solar spectrum,” explained Lane Martin, whose research group has done just that. “This is a fundamentally new way of approaching these matters,” said Martin, who is an ...
