A research team led by Professor Su-Il In of the Department of Energy Science and Engineering at DGIST has uncovered the ...

Researchers develop a simple method to build stable, atom-thick metal layers using tiny defects in carbon, enabling efficient use of metals across technologies. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Using metals in ...

Otherwise, the metal atoms are easy to leave their own “nanoislands”. Therefore, the researchers chose oxides with high affinity to metal atoms as “islands” (such as ceria) in the designed model ...

The term aromaticity is a basic, long-standing concept in chemistry that is well established for ring-shaped carbon compounds. Aromatic rings consisting solely of metal atoms were, however, heretofore ...

A new class of organometallic compound has been made that has a distinctive geometry and electronic structure — with potential for catalysis and materials science. The interaction between the metal ...

Researchers have demonstrated that by using argon plasma, metal atoms can be dispersed and guided to desired positions. This new strategy ensures that not a single atom goes to waste and maximizes the ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. The Earth’s crust is cracked into seven major tectonic plates ...

Quantum simulations are pushing physicists to rethink what it means for an atom to move. In new work on a quantum computer, ...
