China has switched on a record‑breaking vanadium flow battery in Xinjiang, pairing it directly with a 1 gigawatt solar farm ...

This device is known as a Josephson junction. It’s the foundational building block of quantum computers and advances of it ...

NASA scientists completed an experiment aboard the ISS that involves biomining vanadium using the power of microbes to do some work. Biomining is common thanks to its cost-effectiveness and ...

One of the laws of physics is that 'a substance that conducts electricity well can easily conduct heat' is known as the Weedmann-Franz law. However, contrary to the Wiedemann Franz law, it was ...

For the first time, researchers have gotten a detailed view of how atoms in a compound called vanadium dioxide move when an ultrafast laser pulse transforms the material from an electrical insulator ...

History has viewed mining as a job that requires a lot of heavy machinery and physical labor. Pulling valuable material out of the ground has been necessary for human progress for thousands of years.
