Mar 08, 2024 (Nanowerk Spotlight) The ability to precisely position microscopic particles into useful three-dimensional configurations has been a long-standing goal in fields ranging from materials science and photonics to biological sensing and drug delivery. Colloidal particles, which are small particles suspended in a medium, can serve as building blocks...
Nanotechnology Now – Press Release: What heat can tell us about battery chemistry: using the Peltier effect to study lithium-ion cells
Home > Press > What heat can tell us about battery chemistry: using the Peltier effect to study lithium-ion cells The researchers studied how electric current created heat flows in a lithium-ion battery cell. The heat flowed opposite to electric current, resulting in a higher temperature on the side where...
