For more than a century, the well-known 18-electron rule has guided the field of organometallic chemistry. Now, researchers at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), in collaboration with ...
Quantum dots beat traditional photosensitizers at their own game. They tackle reactions once thought too tough for ...
As few as five electrons in a semiconductor can exhibit collective behaviour, forming a “Coulomb liquid”, according to researchers in Europe. This extends the study of correlated systems to electron ...
A new method uses helium droplets combined with ultrashort laser pulses to trigger chemical reactions in a controlled way.
A domestic research team has achieved a world first by directly measuring the "quantum distance" of electrons in solid material. Shown is an image to intuitively express such measurement, with the two ...
Listening to electrons talk G-factor measurement of lithium-like tin Date: May 29, 2025 Source: Max-Planck-Institut fur Kernphysik Summary: Researchers present new experimental and theoretical ...
Ballistic electrons chart a new course for next-gen terahertz devices by Singapore University of Technology and Design edited by Sadie Harley, reviewed by Robert Egan Editors' notes ...
“By directly observing thousands of electrons in real-time, we gain powerful insights into how materials respond at the quantum level,” Jakowski said. Metallic nanoparticles, or metals with dimensions ...
Petrobras CEO: ‘I prefer molecules over electrons. By far!’ Petrobras boss affirms support for oil and gas exploration and production Petrobras chief executive Magda Chambriard.Photo: OTC/PHIL ...
Lightning strikes in the atmosphere can trigger a rain of high-powered “killer electrons” in low-Earth orbit that form harmful streams of radiation, new research suggests. Scientists had ...
The first computer occupied the equivalent square footage of a small three-bedroom house—now we carry a more powerful computer in our pocket. Semiconductor innovations made the microchip possible.
Scientists with the HESS Observatory have identified the most energetic cosmic electrons ever observed. What could this mean for our understanding of the universe?
