We put high concentrations of gases into electrolytes to eliminate the need to manage the challenging air-water-electrode interface, inspired by prior work on synthetic blood. We show that this approach provides a boost in the transport kinetics.

More batteries, fuel cells, and sustainable manufacturing solutions are using gases in electrochemical systems, but the standard gas diffusion electrodes cause consistent problems with kinetics and durability of these systems.

I'm sharing a recent collaboration with Lin Wang and Eric Detsi. We doubled the cycle life (2,000+) of magnesium ion battery anodes using a solid-liquid phase transition that heals anode damage during cycling at room temperature.

Probably not a good use of money. Talked to several industrial companies electrifying and hydrogen is so far away from delivering what their customers want that they aren't even considering it. Better nonEV batteries would be a better investment. #politicsinengineering.

We have another big announcement today. For clean hydrogen. For jobs. And for the clean energy transition. 🟢 NEW—$750M to dramatically reduce the cost of clean hydrogen and directly support 1,500 new jobs.

I think Google has lost the plot on AI. There's no way this level of debacle in an organization as big as Google can be solved without substantial clearing of the house. Also, I don't think that anyone seeking objective truth/facts/analysis will ever use Google AI products.

A great opportunity for #softrobotics researchers to showcase their work on shape morphing robots. Submit a poster to the workshop below at #IEEE #RoboSoft24. I will be talking about our work on electroadhesive clutches to program stiffness and shape in soft robots.

I have been dreaming about making sub-10 volt electrostatic #actuators for some time, and the #electrochemist in me has wanted to do it with double-layers. We just published our first step: sub-10 volt electrostatic clutches for #haptics and #softrobots in Advanced Materials.
