We get more useful energy out of renewables than fossil fuels
It costs less energy to get fossil fuels, but we can't use them as efficiently. Enlarge (credit: Yaorusheng) It doesn't take a lot of energy to dig up coal or pump oil from the ground. In contrast, most renewable source.....»»
iPhone 16 battery density increased; new stainless steel housing – Kuo
A new supply-chain report says that the iPhone 16 battery will have greater energy density than that of current iPhones. This could potentially give the device a longer battery-life, though Apple may instead opt to use a smaller battery. Additiona.....»»
Vietnam urges Apple supplier Foxconn to cut power use by 30% amid energy concerns
Vietnamese officials have asked Apple supplier Foxconn to voluntarily reduce power usage by 30% at its northern assembly plants to prevent power shortages like last summer, which led to over a billion dollars in lost output. more….....»»
Researchers identify the principle behind "soft mechanoluminescent complex"
A research team collaborated to identify the principle of an eco-friendly energy-based soft mechanoluminescent complex that emits light without batteries. It is expected to be applied in various fields, such as optical sensors, artificial skin, and d.....»»
Can coal mines be tapped for rare earth elements?
Deposits of designated critical minerals needed to transition the world's energy systems away from fossil fuels may, ironically enough, be co-located with coal deposits that have been mined to produce the fossil fuel most implicated in climate change.....»»
Seeing the color of entangled photons in molecular systems
Spectroscopy is the study of how matter absorbs and emits light and other radiation. It allows scientists to study the structure of atoms and molecules, including the energy levels of their electrons. Classical optical spectroscopy relies on the way.....»»
New quantum dot approach can enhance electrical conductivity of solar cells
A team led by Professor Jongmin Choi of the Department of Energy Science and Engineering has developed a PbS quantum dot that can rapidly enhance the electrical conductivity of solar cells. The findings are published in the journal Small......»»
How Apple has steadily been dropping the "i" from its devices for over a decade
From the first iMac in the 1990s to today, the prefix "i" has symbolized Apple — but Apple has been working to get rid of it since the original iPad in 2010.Steve Jobs launching the iPad in 2010 — the last Apple device to be named with an "i"Ther.....»»
EV drivers want safety features at charging stations
Safety at charging stations is a top priority for electric vehicle drivers but many stations lack basic safety features, according to a report by the Transportation Energy Institute. EV drivers surveyed said they want public charging stations in v.....»»
NA64 uses the high-energy SPS muon beam to search for dark matter
The NA64 experiment started operations at CERN's SPS North Area in 2016. Its aim is to search for unknown particles from a hypothetical "dark sector." For these searches, NA64 directs an electron beam onto a fixed target. Researchers then look for un.....»»
