For the first time, scientists have recorded electrons in the act of snapping chemical bonds, turning an abstract quantum ...

A new type of semiconductor that can store information using electric fields may lead to more energy-efficient computers, ultra-precise sensors, and technologies that convert signals between ...

During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical ...

Researchers have used single carbon atom doping to form four chemical bonds in one step. Gamma-lactams (cyclic molecules that are common in antibiotics) were easily synthetically accessible from alpha ...

For a little more than a century, chemists have believed that strong atomic links called covalent bonds are formed when atoms share one or more electron pairs. Now, researchers have made the first ...
