Atoms are the building blocks of all matter, from the air we breathe to every cell in our bodies. Yet despite their presence everywhere, no one has truly seen an atom with the naked eye ,until ...

Researchers have solved a mystery that has confounded scientists for 80 years: the crystal structure of the ...

A clever method from Caltech researchers now makes it possible to unravel complex electron-lattice interactions, potentially transforming how we understand and design quantum and electronic materials.

The reaction network of n-butane selective oxidation was comparatively analyzed over a novel αII-V0.8W0.2OPO4 orthophosphate and a reference vanadyl pyrophosphate (VPP) based catalyst via parameter ...

The problem of surface waves usually degrades the performance of planar circuits and antennas, to reduce its effects, the electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structures are applied to suppress these ...

One year since the City of Vancouver banned the sale of lockable butane torches, the devices are still being sold and causing fires in the city.

The efficiency of solar-to-energy conversion in semiconductors is limited by charge carrier recombination, often via defect-induced gap states. Although some materials exhibit an intrinsic defect ...
