Tin-based nanoplates as promising anode materials for high-capacity Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

Researchers from the Harbin Institute of Technology, with colleagues from the Beijing University of Technology and the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee, have synthesized tin chalcogenide (SnSe 0.5 S 0.5 ) nanoplates for use as Li-ion anodes. In a paper published in the Journal of Power Sources, they reported that the as-prepared of SnSe 0.5

Five New Fusion Prospects, Minus the Neutrons

Cars That Think

Gerald Kulcinski, University of Wisconsin A new breed of maverick fusioneers is aiming to solve the neutron problem. There was a lot of work in what we then called ‘advanced fuels’ from the 1960s through the 1980s,” says Gerald Kulcinski, a nuclear engineer and professor emeritus at the University of Wisconsin.
