During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical ...

Using short laser pulses, researchers have imaged the exact moment an ammonia molecule bends and sheds a hydrogen atom.

Chemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a single-atom photocatalytic strategy that enables ...

For the first time, researchers have observed "quantum superchemistry" in the lab. Long theorized but never before seen, quantum superchemistry is a phenomenon in which atoms or molecules in the same ...

Scientists recently created a never-before-seen four-atom molecule — the coldest of its kind ever made. Researchers created the oddball molecule — a strange configuration of sodium-potassium with an ...

Scientists have taken the world's first X-ray SIGNAL (or SIGNATURE) of just one atom. This groundbreaking achievement could revolutionize the way scientists detect the materials. A team of scientists ...

Scientists have developed a new platform for single-atom catalysis. The system isolates metal atoms on carefully designed polymer chains. It aims to boost efficiency and selectivity in chemical ...

In what's being hailed as an important first for chemistry, an international team of scientists has developed a new technology that can selectively rearrange atomic bonds within a single molecule. The ...

OSAKA, Japan. As newly reported by the journal Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, researchers from the Graduate School of Science at Osaka City University have developed a quantum algorithm that can ...

This image depicts the radium atom’s pear-shaped nucleus of protons and neutrons in the center, surrounded by a cloud of electrons (yellow), and an electron (yellow ball with arrow) that has a ...

Ohio University physicist Saw Wai Hla and his colleagues were able to scan a single iron atom hidden amid a complex molecule, something that’s never been done with an X-ray before. Extremely powerful ...
