As embodied carbon becomes a major concern in construction, engineers are rethinking material choices, modeling tools, and ...
Hollow atoms are special atoms with multiple missing electrons in their inner shells, while their outer shells are still ...
Quantum sensors have become important tools in low-energy particle physics. Michael Doser explores opportunities to exploit ...
Scientists at ETH Zurich have developed a powerful method to look deep inside single-atom catalysts—materials where every ...
Astronomers have turned the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) into a time machine to peer back in cosmic time to 1 billion years after the Big Bang.
Carbon, one of the most abundant elements in the universe, constitutes many key components of life and technology. Because of ...
Here we use cryogenic electron microscopy to determine the structure of TbAQP2 from Trypanosoma brucei, bound to either the substrate glycerol or to the sleeping sickness drugs, pentamidine or ...
The vertical-structure heterojunction has been highlighted as a promising candidate for the solar-blind ultraviolet (UV) photodetector (PD) due to the control of its channel length and the strong ...
N-doped carbon materials represent a type of metal-free catalyst for diverse organic synthetic reactions. However, single N-doped carbon materials perform insufficiently in the selective oxidation ...
Precisely tuning the surface properties of Pt active sites is of great importance for designing highly active catalysts used in the low-temperature catalytic oxidation of ethylene (C2H4). Herein, ...
