By freezing a crucial phosphoric acid complex to near absolute zero, scientists uncovered a single, unexpectedly stable structure at the heart of proton transport.

U of A alumnus Alex O'Brien now operates a multi-ton-per-year production facility, running pilot programs with the enhanced nickel superalloys he spent his Ph.D. developing.

Researchers at Nagoya University have created a more efficient iron-based photocatalyst that could reduce the need for rare and expensive metals in advanced chemistry. Unlike earlier designs, the new ...

The discovery of bright yet stable pigments is vanishingly rare, making them hugely valuable. Now chemist Mas Subramanian is unpicking the atomic code of colour and homing in on our most-wanted hue ...

Photocatalysts facilitate chemical reactions by absorbing light. Metal-based photocatalysts are widely used in organic ...

Almost half a century ago, a remarkable molecule called metallocene took center stage in chemistry, earning Geoffrey Wilkinson and Ernst Otto Fischer the Nobel Prize. These organic compounds, made of ...

A long-standing chemistry challenge has been solved with the synthesis of a five-atom silicon aromatic ring. The breakthrough validates decades of theory and points toward new industrially relevant ...

A two‑speed Europe and the so-called ‘European preference’ moved from the margins to the centre of political debate at the EU leaders’ informal retreat in Alden Biesen medieval castle in eastern ...

The new design retains Edison's choice of metals while incorporating 21st-century nanotechnology and bioengineering. The UCLA-led study, published in Small, describes a battery capable of recharging ...

A winter storm is settling in over the U.S. and soon snowflakes will be falling across the nation. Have you ever wondered how one forms? Snow is made up of tiny ice crystals that can transform into a ...
