Scientists have long sought to unravel the mysteries of strange metals—materials that defy conventional rules of electricity ...

Sheets of metal just two atoms thick can be produced by squashing molten droplets at great pressure between two sapphires. The researchers who developed the process say the unusual materials could ...

Researchers at the University of Nottingham's School of Chemistry used transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to observe the ...

Scientists have for the first time filmed the real-time growth and contraction of Palladium nanoparticles, opening new avenues for utilising and recycling precious metal catalysts.

About 98% of lignin created as a forestry by-product from plants is discarded, but a new enzyme could be the key to ...

A new way to create ultra-thin layers of metals makes it possible for scientists to study a new and unusual class of 2D ...

A lab mistake led to self-forming spiral patterns on metal surfaces, revealing chemical-mechanical interactions.

The reaction can also handle coupling partners that don’t work as well with other cross-couplings, such as nitrogen-containing rings. And it works with anilines and aryl boronates, which can be used ...

UCLA doctoral student Yilin Wong left a sample out by mistake. It was a small chip made of germanium, topped with thin layers ...

The pioneering nuclear chemist Glenn Seaborg discovered berkelium at Berkeley Lab in 1949. It was one of many achievements ...

You have seen that some materials are good conductors of electricity and some are not. Metals are generally good conductors, but some materials such as wood, rubber, and plastic are not good at ...

Scientists have for the first time filmed the real-time growth and contraction of Palladium nanoparticles, opening new ...
