Researchers accidentally formed gold hydride under extreme pressure, challenging gold’s long-held inert reputation and ...

Chinese scientists have built a solar battery that captures sunlight and stores electricity at the same time with 4.2 percent ...

Scientists in China have constructed and tested a device that uses redox couples paired with a single triple-junction amorphous-silicon photoelectrode. When tested under a xenon lamp simulating one ...

Researchers from The University of Osaka created a reagent for important building-block molecules with an abundant main-group element, gallium. These early findings show that an organic gallium ...

Non-destructive assay techniques that can quantify the elemental (actinide) content of nuclear materials are critical for the work of the nuclear safeguards community. This is because analytical tools ...

Scientists have created a stable 20-electron ferrocene, defying a core principle of organometallic chemistry. This rare compound could revolutionize redox chemistry and molecular design. Credit: Stock ...

The film "The Colloidal State" explores the concept of colloids, which are materials in a dispersion where small particles of one substance are distributed throughout another. It distinguishes ...

What expands when crushed, shrinks when heated, and could both change scientists’ fundamental understanding of materials and return old EV batteries to factory-fresh performance levels? It’s not a ...

Chemists report that radiation-induced chemical reactions may help mitigate the corrosion of metals in a new type of nuclear reactor cooled by molten salts. High temperatures and ionizing radiation ...
