New research shows the key role of thermal fluctuations in sustaining the 'relay race' of charges needed to maintain electrical current in room temperature ionic liquids. A collaborative investigation ...

Thermoelectric effect is a phenomenon that utilizes temperature difference to achieve electrical transport, offering potential solutions to the energy and environmental challenges faced by humanity.

Conductive gels are central to flexible electronics and wearable sensing technologies, yet their practical use is often ...

Designed as a compact, non-invasive conductivity sensor for high purity measurement in low volume liquid applications, the FT10 Electrodeless Conductivity sensor features patent-pending technology for ...

Polymers are composed of very large molecules formed by a combination of different monomers (smaller and simpler molecules), which can be natural or synthetic. Polymers are the basis of many ...

Normally, when liquids solidify, their molecules become locked in place, making it much harder for ions to move and leading to a steep decrease in ionic conductivity. Now, scientists from Oxford ...
