Silicon, a semi-metal, bonds in its natural form with four other elements and its three-dimensional structure takes the form of a tetrahedron. For a long time, it seemed impossible to achieve the ...
They don’t call this the Silicon Age for nothing – the element is vital to all of the electronics that our modern world is built on. Now, research led by the Carnegie Institution for Science has ...
New research has identified a nanostructure that improves the anode in lithium-ion batteries Instead of using graphite for the anode, the researchers turned to silicon: a material that stores more ...
Scientists in the United States working with silicon anodes for lithium-ion batteries have managed to model key mechanisms that lead to fast developing performance loss in the anodes. Understanding ...

Silicon and carbon could explain Earth’s onion-like inner core
Deep beneath our feet, far beyond the reach of drills or submersibles, Earth hides a solid metal heart that behaves in ways geophysicists have struggled to explain. New experiments now suggest that a ...
The MUSiC Fabrication Lab at the University of Arkansas Fayetteville supports advanced research in next-generation ...
Taking next-gen battery technologies forward, a US firm has unveiled plans to produce units with a 100 percent silicon anode, replacing graphite entirely. Sionic Energy battery's performance relies on ...
