• The structure of the red oxygen ε-phase formed under pressures above 10 GPa has been determined. • Discovery of an O 8 cluster, which is a new conformation of oxygen following ozone. The solid ...

For more than a quarter century, scientists have been trying to determine the structure of a particular form of solid oxygen. X-ray analysis of the substance under high pressure now indicates that ...

Placing materials under extremely strong magnetic fields can give rise to unusual and fascinating physical phenomena or behavior. Specifically, studies show that under magnetic fields above 100 tesla ...

The detailing of the intermolecular interactions in dense solid oxygen is essential for an understanding of the rich polymorphism and remarkable properties of this element at high pressure.

Solid-state lithium-ion batteries depend on the movement of ions (charged atoms) in the solid, rather than liquid, state to either charge or discharge the battery. These solid-state electrolytes are ...

Oxygen evolution is considered one of the most energy-intensive steps in water electrolysis and is therefore a key factor for more efficient green hydrogen production. Modeling of the reaction ...
