The discovery of bright yet stable pigments is vanishingly rare, making them hugely valuable. Now chemist Mas Subramanian is unpicking the atomic code of colour and homing in on our most-wanted hue ...

Researchers have discovered a hidden quantum geometry inside materials that subtly steers electrons, echoing how gravity warps light in space. Once thought to exist only on paper, this effect has now ...

Scientists have long sought to understand the quantum metric (QM)—a fundamental quantity that measures how rapidly neighboring electronic states in a solid change across momentum space. Predicted to ...

In space, bubble trouble hampers oxygen production needed for astronauts to breathe. But neodymium magnets could coax bubbles off electrodes in microgravity to boost the efficiency of splitting water ...

Rocks fractured by earthquakes could unlock a wide menu of chemical energy sources for microbes living deep underground – and similar processes could potentially support microbes within other planets.

Abstract: We present the results of our exploration of the influence of cathode cavity geometry on the parameters of a forevacuum-pressure plasma-cathode electron source based on a hollow cathode glow ...

In this study, chiral gold nanoparticles with a concave vortex cube structure were employed as the chiral substrate, exhibiting highly tunable optical chirality and intriguing chiral-induced spin ...

Thomas Cooper was 5 years old when he died Jan. 31 in a fire inside a hyperbaric chamber at the Oxford Center in Troy. The CEO of the Oxford Center, Tamela Peterson, along with four others are charged ...

A research team from the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford have measured the slow process of energy loss in lithium-ion batteries resulting from escaping oxygen ...
