Rubidium could be the next key player in oxide-ion conductors. Researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo have discovered a rare rubidium (Rb)-containing oxide-ion conductor, Rb₅BiMo₄O₁₆ ...

A material that’s a terrible heat conductor could make a superb insulator, and materials like it could play a key role in bringing the world to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions.

A new ion superhighway modeled after human cells could speed our batteries way up. Digging out a nanochannel for charged ions turned a “rat’s nest” into a superfast conductor.
