As newly reported by the journal Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, ... which is less prone to noise than individually calculating the total energy of an atom or molecule.

Speeding up chemical reactions is key to improving industrial processes or mitigating unwanted or harmful waste. Realizing ...

Scientists have simulated every atom of a light-harvesting structure in a photosynthetic bacterium that generates energy for the organism. The simulated organelle behaves just like its counterpart ...

A resonance effect can significantly affect how a three-atom molecule cools down when excited, RIKEN physicists have found.

Guided by quantum chemical calculations, scientists design and test a new single atom catalyst that converts propane to propylene with 100% efficiency, with little deactivation by coking. If ...

This work has pushed the sensitivity of single-atom vibrational spectroscopy in STEM to the level of chemical bonds and made precise measurements of the vibrational properties of point defects in ...

(b) Using a single atom of Pd 1 anchored on the material CeO 2 as a representative example, this panel illustrates the dynamic structural and valence state evolution of the Pd 1 ASAC. These changes ...

Seeking new solutions to more efficiently harvest and store solar energy, scientists from the U.S., China, and Germany have synthesized a new, dual-atom catalyst to serve as a platform for artificial ...
