Schematic of a solid-state fuel cell made from the new material and titanium. The result of the galvanostatic discharge reaction showed that the Ti electrode was completely hydrogenated to TiH2 for x ≥ 0.2. Source:

Researchers in Japan have recently developed a solid electrolyte for transporting hydride ions (H−) at room temperature, which opens up new avenues for improving the...
