Researchers developed tiny Zn batteries with high energy density, producing 10,000 units per 2-inch wafer to power small sensors.
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have created microscopic zinc -based batteries capable of delivering high energy in volumes of only two picoliters each.
MIT researchers believe that this approach may contribute to the downscaling of energy storage systems for incorporation into devices the size of cells. Additionally, alternative power sources like solar cells restrict functionality in low-light conditions, such as underground or inside pipelines. The team developed a tiny zinc/platinum/SU-8 battery using a process called photolithography, which allowed them to create a very high-energy-density micro battery at a picoliter scale.

Researchers discover there was an overseas trade supplying horses for sacrifices during the late Viking agePrehistoric communities from Iceland to the Eurasian Steppe sacrificed horses as part of their funeral rites. These Baltic tribes, known as the Balts, sacrificed horses longer than anywhere else in Europe, up until the 14th century.
