conductivity

Solar and wind power depend heavily on copper due to its high conductivity – and Peru is the world's second-largest producer.

One of the most exciting findings was a dramatic increase in diamond surface conductivity -- up to seven times higher -- after laser treatment.

But why is the conductivity of the conventional perovskite-type proton conductors so low?

Since its discovery in 2004, the material -- a single layer of carbon atoms -- has been touted for its host of unique properties, which include ultra-high electrical conductivity and remarkable tensile strength.

However, MOFs typically exhibit low thermal conductivity, making them poor thermal conductors.
