Inorganic Nanocrystal that Exhibits Fast-Switching Photochromism Discovered

Isn't it convenient when office building windows adaptively darken according to the intensity of sunlight- Or when standard glasses turn into sunglasses under the sun and switch back as you enter a building- Such feats are possible thanks to photochromic materials, whose optical (and other) properties change radically when irradiated by visible or ultraviolet light.

Research Provides Deeper Insight into Oxidation Processes in Combustion Engines and in the Atmosphere

Alkanes, an important component of fuels for combustion engines and an important class of urban trace gases, react via another reaction pathways than previously thought. These hydrocarbons, formerly called paraffins, thus produce large amounts of highly oxygenated compounds that can contribute to organic aerosol and thus to air pollution in cities.
