More than ten years ago, researchers at Rice University led by materials scientist Boris Yakobson predicted that boron atoms ...

Chemists have developed an efficient skeletal editing method for frequently used heteroaromatic structures. The technique could serve as a means to chemically modify biologically active compounds.

HR-STM and NC-AFM images for the identification of Na and bonding geometries, model of deformable honeycomb structures, and statistics of deflection angles (PDF) ...

Found in knee replacements and bone plates, aircraft components, and catalytic converters, the exceptionally strong metals known as multiple principal element alloys (MPEA) are about to get even ...

Work to date has included designing, fabricating and testing a prototype relativistic structure using a patterned gold layer. To go further, we have studied the fabrication techniques and ...

This is a key problem, because, under their proposed structure, state tax revenue would be necessary to pay debt service on bonds for at least 25 years. "On the income tax side, the new full-time ...

One area that bridges classroom and laboratory settings with practical hands-on learning is the use of open-source density functional theory (DFT) calculations of electronic band structures. Here, we ...
