Scientists Create Stretchy Rubber That Converts Body Heat Into Electricity for Wearables
Scientists at Peking University have developed a stretchable elastomer that converts body heat into electricity, detailed in Nature. The breakthrough uses thermoelectricity to power wearable and implantable devices without batteries. Enhanced with a doping agent for higher conductivity, the material combines flexibility with efficiency, marking a l...

Indian Researchers Develop Energy-Efficient Method to Create Glass, Could Improve Efficiency of Data Centres
Scientists from IISc, University of Pennsylvania, and MIT reveal a breakthrough with indium selenide that transforms crystalline structures to glass using significantly less energy. By passing a continuous electric current, the crystalline material experiences a “shock” that converts it to glass. The low energy requirement could help lower powe...
