Scientists in Germany have shed light on how nanoscale imaging techniques like tip-enhanced Raman ...
Crystallography is the science of analyzing the pattern produced by shining an X-ray beam through a material sample. A powder sample produces a different pattern than solid crystal. One longstanding ...
In chemistry, molecules with a "flat" geometry are often stable enough to support a wide range of reactions. But in the quantum world, that's not technically true.
Electron diffraction is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic structure of materials. It involves the interaction of a beam of electrons with a crystalline sample, resulting in a ...
A research team led by Professor Su-Il In of the Department of Energy Science and Engineering at DGIST has uncovered the ...
The Schrödinger equation rewrote the rules of matter and forever changed the field of chemistry. Donald Truhlar, a chemist at the University of Minnesota, calls it the “greatest advance of the 20th ...
Actinides are a group of heavy, radioactive elements that include uranium, plutonium, americium, curium, berkelium and ...
In a new study ( Nature Physics, "Orbital Seebeck effect induced by chiral phonons" ), researchers developed the most ...
