Tetra-substituted alkenes – carbon–carbon double bonds surrounded by four different chemical groups – are a surprisingly ...

But because boron has one less electron than carbon, it can't form the same 60-atom structure found in the buckyball. The missing electrons would cause the cluster to collapse on itself.

A crucial property of the electron within QED is the so-called g factor, ... So far, the only boron-like g factor has been measured with high precision for argon ions with a proton number Z of 18.

A research team led by Prof. YANG Liangbao from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences found that hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) could effectively block electron ...

These early uses echo in borax's (and ultimately, boron's) name: The word is from the Arabic "buraq," or white. However, the element itself was not extracted until 1808, according to the Royal ...

Electron-starved acids gravitate … ANCIENT alchemists wanted to transform common metals into gold. Now chemists have achieved a more subtle modern-day equivalent – converting the element boron ...

“Now that we are able to predict how much we need to irradiate the material at each energy to kick out nitrogen or boron atoms, we can design experiments that optimize the desired distribution of ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — By using photons and electron spin qubits to control nuclear spins in a two-dimensional material, researchers at Purdue University have opened a new frontier in quantum science ...
