Lanthanide-containing complexes are important compounds for sophisticated nuclear-fuel processing and medical imaging. Moreover, they often have interesting symmetric crystal structures and associated ...

Such 'hydration' can also occur when water molecules or their constituent elements, notably a hydroxide ion (a negatively charged ion combining a single oxygen and single hydrogen atom) are integrated ...

When heated with a burst of laser light, hydrogen bonds between water molecules shorten briefly. The work sheds new light on the structure of water. (Greg Stewart/SLAC) Water is the most abundant yet ...

The HS-I, CS-I, and CS-II structures of hydrate correspond to the Z, A15, and C15 phases of the Frank-Kasper phase, respectively. With the discovery of HS-I, the primitive structures at the three ...

Electrocatalysis, which accelerates chemical reactions driven by an electric potential at a solid–liquid interface, could be a key contributor to a sustainable global economy because it can convert ...

Ice is a key component in the universe. There are frozen water molecules on comets, moons, exoplanets, and in your drink as you cool off from the summer heat. However, under the microscope, not all ...

Researchers have created a never-before-seen form of ice with a disorganized structure and a density almost exactly that of liquid water. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...
