Ultrafast imaging technique reveals how ozone-damaging molecule reacts to light
For the first time, researchers have observed how bromoform rearranges its atoms in less than a trillionth of a second after it gets hit by an ultraviolet (UV) pulse. The imaging technique captured a ...
Chemists showcase power of pathbreaking method to make complex molecules
Chemists have synthesized a highly complex natural molecule through a new strategy of functionalizing normally inert carbon-hydrogen (C-H). The journal Science has published the breakthrough. Led by chemists ...
Nanosensor platform enables development of flexible biosensors with modular design
Biosensors play a key role in medical research and diagnostics. At present, however, they generally have to be specially developed for each application. A team led by LMU chemist Philip Tinnefeld has ...
Quantum encoding methods could slash circuit complexity in machine learning
A recent study by researchers from CSIRO and the University of Melbourne has made progress in quantum machine learning, a field aimed at achieving quantum advantage to outperform classical machine learning.
Physicists reveal how layers and twists impact graphene's optical conductivity
When it comes to electrically conductive nanomaterials, graphene—stronger and lighter than steel and more conductive than copper—has been shown to be an excellent choice for a wide range of technologies.
Can the noble metals become superconductors?
Superconductivity is the phenomenon by which, at sufficiently low temperatures, electric current can flow in a metal with no resistance. While certain metals are excellent superconductors, other metals ...
New approach for tuning current flow in 2D MOF nanosheets shows promise for advanced electronics
Researchers led by Prof. Cunlan Guo at Wuhan University have pioneered a new approach to control the electrical properties of two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), specifically porphyrinic ...
