A research team synthesized and determined the structure of a borate-linked 3D crystalline covalent organic framework, ...

Nitrenes are the ghosts of synthetic chemistry, formed in an instant and gone just as quickly, rearranging into something ...

Crystals reveal the hidden geometry of molecules to the naked eye. Scientists use crystals to figure out the atomic structure of new materials, but many materials can't be grown large enough. Now, a ...

Phase transformations—in which a material changes from one crystal structure to another, thereby acquiring dramatically different properties—are ubiquitous in nature. Understanding the microscopic ...

Being the first element to form, hydrogen holds clues about the distribution of matter in our universe. Normally a gas, hydrogen exists as a solid under ultra-high-pressure conditions commonly found ...

The ability to predict crystal structures is a key part of the design of new materials. New research shows that a mathematical algorithm can guarantee to predict the structure of any material just ...

An artificial intelligence created by Google DeepMind may help revolutionise materials science, providing new ways to make better batteries, solar panels, computer chips and many more vital ...

Duplicates of crystal structures are flooding databases, implicating repositories hosting organic, inorganic, and computer-generated crystals. The issue raises questions about curation practices at ...

TRUNNANO (Luoyang Tongrun Nano Technology Co., Ltd.), a global leader in nanotechnology and advanced materials development, today announced the official launch of its new Battery Materials Division.
