Researchers at the Jülich Research Center and the Leibniz Institute for Innovative Microelectronics (IHP) have developed a ...

Researchers have developed a breakthrough semiconductor alloy that paves the way for advanced quantum, photonic, and ...

A new version of the periodic table of elements has predicted hundreds of highly charged ions that could be used to create the next generation of optical atomic clocks.

The colors of rubies and emeralds are so striking that they define shades of red and green—ruby red and emerald green. But have you ever wondered how they get those colors?

Discover who created the periodic table of elements and how it works. Learn about Dmitri Mendeleev’s contributions, its structure, and why it’s essential for science.

Her team is studying how specific transition metal complexes can capture carbon dioxide from the air and transform it into metal carbonate, a compound often found in natural minerals. What are these ...

Ion charge-state distributions have been measured with high time resolution for short (20 /spl mu/s) and long (250 /spl mu/s) vacuum discharges of 300 A. Charge-state data for 3 /spl mu/s after ...

In this periodic table of elements quiz, you have 10 minutes to name as many elements as you can, given only their symbol, atomic weight and the broad group they live in.

The application of these diagrams to the inner transition elements also explains the electron configurations of lanthanoids and actinoids, except for Ce, Pa, U, Np, and Cm, whose electron ...

In 1871, a hot-tempered Russian scientist called Dmitri Mendeleev laid out the most effective grouping of chemical elements. These groupings, which allegedly came to Mendeleev in a dream, organize ...
