Florida International University researchers have discovered a new single-element compound, a breakthrough that could rewrite chemistry books.
The Center for the Study of Matters at Extreme Condition (CeSMEC) at FIU ...
The National Institute of Standards
and Technology (NIST) has issued a new standard - a certified reference
material - to aid in the detection and measurement of the potent carcinogen
hexavalent chromium in soil.
The U.S. Department of Energy's
(DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory received grants from DOE and the National
Institutes of Health (NIH) totaling $28 million to support an X-ray Crystallography
Research Resource at the Laboratory’s National Synchrotron Light Source
(NSLS).
The method, which is based on near-field microscopy, opens new avenues for analyzing mechanical properties of high-performance materials or for contact-free mapping of local conductivity in strain-engineered electronic devices
Common sense tells us that when you heat something up it gets softer, but
a team of researchers, led by University
of Toronto chemistry and physics professor R.J. Dwayne Miller, has demonstrated
the exact opposite.
Scientists at Penn State University
and the Virginia Commonwealth University have discovered a way to produce hydrogen
by exposing selected clusters of aluminum atoms to water. The findings are important
because they demonstrate that it is the geometries of these aluminum clusters,
rather than solely their electronic properties, that govern the proximity of
the clusters' exposed active sites.
Neil Young said it in 1979: Rust never sleeps. Today, Battelle
researchers have taken his words to heart. In their innovative heads, they have
come up with a smart coating that can reveal where corrosion is forming on metal
even though one can't see the degradation with the naked eye.
Engineers and food scientists are teaming up to develop a new type of gelled fuel the consistency of orange
marmalade designed to improve the safety, performance and range of rockets for
space and military applications.
After announcing last April a method for growing exceptionally long, straight,
numerous and well-aligned carbon cylinders only a few atoms thick, a Duke
University-led team of chemists has now modified that process to create
exclusively semiconducting versions of these single-walled carbon nanotubes.
Researchers at Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute have discovered a new method for controlling the nature
of graphene, bringing academia and industry potentially one step closer to realizing
the mass production of graphene-based nanoelectronics.
