Superconductors are heating up, and a world record-holder may have just been dethroned. Two studies report evidence of superconductivity — the transmission of electricity without resistance — at ...

Hydrogen has the highest energy density (120 MJ/kg) of all known substances, approximately three times more than diesel or gasoline, meaning it could play a pivotal role in sustainable energy systems.

Researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are taking a new approach to "filling up" a fuel cell car with a nanoscale solid, hydrogen storage material.

Hydrogen is the fuel of the future. Unfortunately, one problem remains: Hydrogen is a gas and cannot easily be pumped into a tank like gasoline. Storage in the form of solid hydrides, chemical ...

Scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory are exploring ways to use an inexpensive and layered superconductor compound to efficiently store hydrogen. They have already discovered the ...

Hydrogen sulfide — the compound responsible for the smell of rotten eggs — conducts electricity with zero resistance at a record high temperature of 203 kelvin (–70 °C), reports a paper published in ...

A new superconducting material fabricated by a Canadian-German team has been fabricated out of a silicon-hydrogen compound [after supercompression, 96-120GPa] and does not require cooling. They had to ...

Researchers from Skoltech, Jilin University and Beijing HPSTAR in China, and their German colleagues have synthesized and studied a new type of hydrogen-rich superconductor. Technically referred to as ...

Researchers have synthesized a new class of aluminum-hydrogen compounds with a unique chemistry that could lead to the development of more powerful solid rocket fuel and may also, in time, be useful ...

In June 2023, the Japanese government revised its "Hydrogen Basic Strategy" for the first time since its creation in 2017. The revised Hydrogen Basic Strategy sets out Japan's hydrogen strategy for ...

The hydrogen and renewable natural gas fueling infrastructure market presents growth opportunities driven by rising demand ...

Since the discovery of low-temperature superconductors, there has been an ongoing effort to realize superconductivity at room temperatures with low cooling costs. Crystalline materials containing ...
