A newly developed, highly conductive copper wire could find applications in the electric grid, as well as in homes and businesses. The finding defies what's been thought about how metals conduct ...
Electrical resistivity (also called specific electrical resistance or volume resistivity) is a fundamental property of a material that measures how strongly it resists electric current. Its inverse, ...
A group of scientists has created a quantum material where electricity can flow without losing energy as heat. Until now, this was only seen in ...
Scientists from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden have developed an insulation material that is about three times less conductive than the performance of typical high-voltage direct current ...
Researchers at the University of Chicago have created new materials that make OLED displays fully stretchable. Their key advance is an aluminium electrode embedded in a gallium–indium alloy, allowing ...
A stretchy, conductive type of plastic could help power the next generation of implantable biomedical devices, like longer-lasting pacemakers or glucose monitors, according to Enrique Gomez, professor ...
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 ...
Penn State scientists create elastic gel-like plastic that conducts electricity using salts and tiny fiber networks for flexible electronics.
