Lithium-sulfur batteries have exceptional theoretical capacity and performance in combination with an element in abundant supply. But the intricate reaction mechanism, particularly during discharge, ...

Ancient sediments that once resided on a lake bed and the ocean floor show sulfur isotope ratios unlike those found in other samples from the same time, calling into question accepted ideas about when ...

Lithium-sulfur batteries can pack up to five times as much energy by weight as some lithium-ion batteries, in principle. In practice, experimental versions of the batteries have fallen short of ...

The research team led by Professor Jong-sung Yu of the DGIST (President Kunwoo Lee) Department of Energy Science and Engineering has developed an innovative technology to dramatically improve the ...

The biggest obstacle to mass production and use of sulfur-based batteries is durability. A good lithium-ion battery, like ...

A recent breakthrough by Korean researchers could be a game changer for the electric vehicle (EV) industry. They have developed a new method for lithium-sulfur batteries that delivers high performance ...

A research team from the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has directly measured the masses of two highly unstable atomic nuclei, phosphorus-26 and sulfur-27.
