This year the Battery Show North America had a record 7500 visitors joined, and 500 exhibitors, including IDTechEx, were present on the exhibition floor. Lorenzo Grande reports on his experience at the show.

Battery elimination, indeed elimination of all energy storage, is moving to even higher power, from electronics to electrical engineering.

Thin films for use in solar cells are more effective when simple chemicals called glycol ethers are added to the film-forming mix.

Scientists have developed a new type of ultra-thin photovoltaic device, coated on both sides with stretchable and waterproof films, which can continue to provide electricity from sunlight even after being soaked in water or being stretched and compressed.

Cast your mind back a few years and you will find a conductive ink business that appeared very mature and slow moving. Then everything began to change...

Researchers have shown that defects in the molecular structure of perovskites - a material which could revolutionise the solar cell industry - can be "healed" by exposing it to light and just the right amount of humidity.

Computer controls allow the e-paper panels to act as individual pixels that collectively display more than 15 unique, artist-designed animations.

This article covers IDTechEx's recent interview with members of Ioxus staff.

As 3-D printing has become a mainstream technology, industry and academic researchers have been investigating printable structures that will fold themselves into useful three-dimensional shapes when heated or immersed in water.
