Anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) have gained attention in the process of fuel cell development because they operate in alkaline environments, the redox reaction rate at the electrodes is ...

Chemists have coaxed vinyl cations to insert into C–H bonds of alkanes and arenes. In doing so, they’ve shown that this classic carbocation is capable of much more than previously thought. Although ...

Charged particles in aqueous solutions are always surrounded by a shell of water molecules. However, much is still unknown about the nature of this so-called hydration shell. Using terahertz ...

The New Philadelphia Science Club is back with another science question in The Times-Reporter. Each week a new science-related question will be given, and everyone is invited to participate by either ...

Ions influence conductivity and mobility in molecular liquid crystals, affecting electrical behavior, stability, and performance in both established and emerging technologies. (Nanowerk Spotlight) The ...

Current connection: Schematic diagram of the ion-wire-ion system. Two ions are trapped at either end of an electrically floating wire that is at room temperature. (Courtesy: Da An) Scientists at the ...
