The presence of ions affects the structure and dynamics of water on a multitude of length and time scales. New results from ultrafast spectroscopy and theoretical analyses show that the water ...

Researchers at the Tokyo University of Science (TUS) have developed a new electrolyte material that improves the conductivity of magnesium ions at room temperature, paving the way for the next step in ...

Researchers at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) have developed a quasi-solid-state magnesium-ion battery with a voltage plateau at 2.4 V and an energy density of 264 Wh/kg. It surpasses the ...

Scientists in Japan have developed a novel metal-organic, framework-based magnesium ion conductor with superionic conductivity, even at room temperature. Mg 2+ has poor solid-state conductivity ...

Tokyo University of Science is researching magnesium as a potential energy carrier to replace expensive and unsafe lithium-ion batteries. The research team focused on a novel cathode material with a ...

A new cathode material leverages a rock-salt structure for enhanced magnesium diffusion at a lower temperature. The high-entropy strategy employed creates a crystal structure abundant in stable cation ...
