Imagine a battery that stores more power, lasts longer, and remains safe even under stress. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory and the University of ...

A row of electric cars plugged in at charging stations with trees and flowering bushes in the background. Lithium-metal anodes could double the distance that electric cars (shown) can go on a full ...

A University of Houston engineer has found that lithium dendrites inside batteries are not soft as previously believed but behave like brittle, rigid structures capable of causing serious damage.

An estimated $500 billion worth of lithium lies below the Salton Sea, a large lake in Imperial County, California, east of San Diego, and many people are eager to tap into this “white gold mine.” But ...

In a world first, scientists have experimentally verified the entanglement of the momentum of atoms, a feat previously only achieved with photons. Scientists from Australia and the U.S. pulled off ...

In Imperial County, Calif., half of the roads are unpaved and the unemployment rate is sky-high. The shimmering water at a once-thriving lakeshore is toxic. Perhaps nowhere in California needs a ...
