Modern electronics and renewable energy systems depend on DC to AC inverters that convert a DC source into a clean sinusoidal AC output. This technical article explains the theory behind inverter circuits, their types, architectures, and practical design tips.
As lithium-ion batteries power more vehicles and energy systems, the risk of thermal runaway grows. Honeywell's BES LITE detects electrolyte vapors at the first vent stage, enabling rapid intervention to prevent failures, protect assets, and ensure safety compliance.
New technology from Reeja Jayan in the department of mechanical engineering at Carnegie Mellon University extends battery life cycle by 10x, reduces charging time, and improves operating safety.
This article is a detailed exploration of crystalline vs amorphous solids, covering atomic order, materials properties, semiconductors, and how they translate into practical semiconductor, hardware and digital design applications.
These devices could pack three times as much energy per pound as today's best EV batteries, offering a lightweight option for powering trucks, planes, or ships.
Development of technology to enable use of hydrogen as a fuel to power turbines, engines, boilers, etc., safely and efficiently is already underway. This first approach is suitable for applications where comparatively large output is required.
NanoXplore has been a pioneer in commercialising graphene. Many know it for its ambitious activities in breaking down the cost and availability barrier of graphene by massively scaling up a well-engineered production process. This is a prerequisite for market development but is not sufficient.
Plants use light waves from only a portion of the spectrum for photosynthesis – the remainder can be recovered and used to generate solar power. That’s the idea behind the solar modules developed by EPFL startup Voltiris.
The shift to renewable energy is on the rise as fossil fuel reserves deplete. Learn about the growing interest in pairing energy storage with solar power, the tradeoffs that come with doing so, and how Capacitech’s flexible supercapacitor technology can help customers overcome these challenges.
In this episode, we talk about how researchers are bringing affordable space technology to the masses via additive manufacturing along with a manufacturing approach that could serve as the keystone for wide scale use of affordable, semitransparent organic solar cells.
This student article shows the synergetic effects of a furfuryl polymer coating and subsequent calcination leading to improved electrochemical performance of nickel-rich NMC622.
This article delves into the core concepts of linear vs switching power supply, exploring their efficiency, noise levels, and other key factors, that help make the right choice for your projects!
Virtual and augmented reality are becoming increasingly useful for manufacturing, maintenance, construction and surveying activities, but what good is an advanced immersive visual medium if you can’t use it for very long?
In this episode, we talk about how researchers are making advancements in the energy harvesting and energy storage fronts to make renewable energy a more viable alternative to fossil fuels.
Using public electricity and solar panels for the easy and hassle-free charging of Electric Vehicles is an interesting solution to combat the problem of the unavailability of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations.
Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS), in collaboration with colleagues at the University of Cambridge, have developed a new method to dramatically extend the lifetime of organic aqueous flow batteries
PerPetum is an innovative renewable energy company and one of the largest constructors of solar parks in the Benelux. Headquartered in Belgium and active in The Netherlands for over five years they opened an office at High Tech Campus Eindhoven in early 2020
In this episode, we talk about why minimization of speakers and energy storage devices is crucial for the next generation of electronics and medical devices.
