Achieving high-performance anodes relies on the coupled effects of interfacial electric fields and controllable deposition morphology. Previous strategies, such as interface modification, structural ...

Nearly every home has one. Water heaters are ubiquitous in buildings, though they are not all the same. In most cases we heat and store water in a tank which has either electric elements or a gas ...

Magnesium-air batteries have emerged as a promising energy storage solution due to their high theoretical energy density and the abundance of magnesium. However, practical implementation has been ...

Q: Recently, you wrote about replacing a water heater’s drain valve. A friend told us that we should also check the anode rod. Is this worth checking? If so, how do we do that? A: An anode rod is a ...

Anode-free metal batteries represent an exciting new design, where prefabricated anodes are eliminated to maximize energy densities. For example, in magnesium (Mg) metal batteries, instead of starting ...
