Nickel–hydrogen battery
A nickel–hydrogen battery (NiH₂) is a rechargeable battery developed for spacecraft, valued for long cycle life and used on satellites and the Hubble Space Telescope.
Nickel–iron anodes for alkaline water electrolysis
Nickel–iron anodes are alkaline water electrolysis electrodes whose NiFe (oxy)hydroxide surface catalyzes the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction, the leading non-noble-metal alternative to scarce iridium and ruthenium.
Nickel–iron battery
The nickel–iron battery, abbreviated Ni–Fe, is a durable rechargeable battery with iron and nickel electrodes in alkaline electrolyte, independently patented by Thomas Edison and Ernst Waldemar Jungner around 1901.
Nickel–iron oxyhydroxide catalysts on nickel foam for alkaline electrolyzers
Nickel–iron oxyhydroxide catalysts grown directly on porous nickel foam are self-supported, precious-metal-free anode electrodes for the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline water electrolysis, the standard non-noble benchmark.
Nickel–iron oxyhydroxide OER catalysts
Nickel–iron oxyhydroxide OER catalysts, usually written NiFeOOH, are earth-abundant materials that catalyze the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline water electrolysis and are leading alternatives to noble-metal catalysts like IrO2 and RuO2.
Nickel–metal hydride battery
A nickel–metal hydride (NiMH) battery is a rechargeable 1.2 V cell storing hydrogen in a metal alloy, with higher capacity than NiCd and long use in hybrid vehicles.
Nickel–zinc battery
The nickel–zinc battery (Ni–Zn) is a rechargeable battery using a zinc anode and nickel oxyhydroxide cathode, delivering a higher cell voltage than other nickel-based chemistries.
Nickel(II) oxide
Nickel(II) oxide, also known as nickel monoxide or green nickel oxide, is a green-to-black inorganic compound of nickel and oxygen with the formula NiO, used in pigments, smart windows, and solar cells.
Nickel/photoredox C–sp3–H cross-coupling
Nickel/photoredox C–sp3–H cross-coupling is a dual-catalytic organic method in which a visible-light photocatalyst generates carbon radicals from C–H bonds for nickel to couple with electrophiles.
Nickel/photoredox C(sp3)–C(sp2) cross-coupling
Nickel/photoredox C(sp3)–C(sp2) cross-coupling, or metallaphotoredox catalysis, is a dual-catalytic method joining alkyl carbons to aryl or vinyl carbons, first reported in 2014 by the Molander and Doyle/MacMillan groups.
Nickel/photoredox dual catalytic cross-coupling
Nickel/photoredox dual catalytic cross-coupling is a method for forming carbon–carbon bonds in which a nickel catalyst and a visible-light photocatalyst operate as interwoven cycles, first demonstrated in 2014.
Nickelate superconductors
Nickelate superconductors are nickel oxide compounds that show unconventional superconductivity, beginning in 2019 and studied as a third family of high-temperature superconductors alongside cuprates and iron-based materials.
