Researchers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have mixed metal compounds with perchloric acid to create a stable, efficient electrocatalytic material for the oxygen evolution reaction in acidic media. Electrolyzers use electricity to break water molecules into oxygen and hydrogen. The resulting porous Y 2 [Ru 1.6

Here is a small sampling of what transistors have become in the last 75 years: Ephemeral: Researchers in Illinois developed circuits that dissolve in the body using a combination of ultrathin silicon membranes, magnesium conductors, and magnesium oxide insulators. Five minutes in water was enough to turn the first generation to mush.
