A silver single-atom chain demonstrates atomic-scale strain sensing and piezoresistive effects, advancing nanotechnology and ...

This 'solar system' model of the atom is the way that most people think about atoms today. It is known as the Rutherford-Bohr model of atomic structure. The neutron was difficult to discover ...

Mirkin, who coauthored the paper. "In the small molecule era, it was critical to control the placement of every atom and ...

Many modern industrial processes depend on complex chemistry. Take fertilizer production, for example: to make it, companies ...

Researchers have created a manganese-based nanozyme that enables both near-infrared imaging and precise catalytic treatment ...

Such molecules would be suited to acting as quantum bits, or qubits, the basic unit of information in quantum systems. But ...

So convincing is this model that after only twelve years it is known no longer as “the atomic model of Rutherford and Bohr,” but is simply taken for granted as “the atom.” In this ...

From ancient Babylon to modern bathrooms, soap has shaped human hygiene for over 5,000 years. But how does it really work?

A scientific revolution is underway as researchers push to bring atomic-level precision, once reserved for small molecule ...
