Navigating the extreme cold of deep space or handling super-chilled liquid fuels here on Earth requires materials that won't ...

Scientists have, for the first time, successfully studied liquid carbon in the lab by combining a powerful high-performance ...

A landmark discovery has been made in the realm of organic chemistry, as scientists have successfully synthesized a stable 48-atom carbon ring, known as cyclo[48]carbon, that can now be studied in ...

Anchoring single metal atoms on ultrathin supports improves catalyst efficiency and stability, making hydrogen production ...

Researchers have synthesized a stable cyclo[48]carbon, a unique 48-carbon ring that can be studied in solution at room temperature, a feat never achieved before. In a new study led by Oxford ...

A meteorite-born mineral with both crystal and glass traits has defied the known rules of heat conduction. Its constant heat flow, discovered through AI-driven research, could transform industries ...

Carbon-based single-atom nanozymes (C-SANzymes), characterized by their M-N x active sites, have attracted significant attention as highly promising enzyme mimics. A critical approach to enhancing the ...

A bright, blinding light flashed above New Mexico’s Jornada del Muerto desert at 5:30 a.m. on July 16, 1945. The thunderous roar that followed jolted 14-year-old Jess Gililland awake on the porch of ...

Abstract: Rydberg atomic electric field detection technology, as a novel quantum precision detection method, offers high detection sensitivity, this feature makes Rydberg atomic sensors (RASs) have ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) At the scale of individual atoms, materials behave in ways that defy everyday intuition. Stretch a metal wire by a few micrometers and its resistance changes only slightly.

Crystallography is the science of analyzing the pattern produced by shining an X-ray beam through a material sample. A powder sample produces a different pattern than solid crystal. One longstanding ...
