LG Energy Solution points to commercial viability of sulfur-based batteries
LG Energy Solution said it developed a high-capacity battery using sulfur as a cathode material by applying all-solid-state battery technology. The company said the approach blocks polysulfide dissolution seen in liquid electrolytes, securing about 1,500 mAh/g capacity and stable cycle life. It said the performance was demonstrated in both coin cells and pouch-type cells. The work was conducted with a University of Chicago research team and published in Nature Communications.

POSTECH professor Min Seung-gi wins February Korea science and technology award for climate crisis research
South Korea\'s Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Research Foundation selected Min Seung-gi (민승기), a professor in the Department of Environmental Engineering at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), as the February recipient of the Korea Science and Technology Award. He applied a correction method based on greenhouse gas radiative forcing to Arctic sea ice research. His analysis found sea ice declined significantly in all months and linked the main cause to rising greenhouse gases.

KAIST develops cap-like OLED to prevent hair loss
KAIST has developed an OLED-based wearable phototherapy device for hair loss that can be worn like a cap. The team applied a special OLED light source to a flexible, textile-like platform to provide non-invasive treatment. Unlike rigid, helmet-type devices using LED or laser point sources, the cap integrates a near-infrared surface-emitting OLED to deliver uniform light across the scalp. Researchers designed the OLED to emit selectively in the 730 to 740 nm band.
