Anhydrous Proton Conduction Through a Chemically Robust Electrolyte Enabling a High‐Temperature Non‐Precious Metal Catalyzed Fuel Cell Open
Fuel cells offer great promise for portable electricity generation, but their use is currently limited by their low durability, excessive operating temperatures, and expensive precious metal electrodes. It is therefore essential to develop…

Lithium-Ion Uptake and Diffusion in a Family of Organically Synthesized Porous Carbon Open
Organically synthesized porous carbon (OSPC-1) is a newly discovered carbon allotrope. OSPC-1 is synthesized via the Eglinton homocoupling of ethynyl methane. It has a large surface area (766 m2 g–1) and a high lithium uptake of 748 mAh g–…
