New research has revealed that water behaves differently when confined to spaces just one molecule thick. For the first time, ...

And Schafmeister isn’t the only chemist turning to modular methods of synthesis to explore vast regions of chemical space. It ...

A study published in Nature Physics provides new molecular-level evidence from simulations that liquid water is not a single uniform substance, but a constantly shifting mixture of two distinct ...

If the eyes are the window to the soul, then your brows are the curtains that define your entire being. Hyperbolic, sure. But eyebrow shapes are sneakily one of the most important features to consider ...

A new molecule takes an unexpected turn. Scientists created half-Möbius molecules, similar to the Möbius strips common in math classes, but half as twisty. It’s a type of topology, or geometrical ...

Chemists have discovered a new molecular shape, and it is twice as odd as the twisty Möbius strip. The Möbius strip is a looped band with a twist, such that something tiny, such as an ant, would have ...

Scientists have just created a new, strange type of molecule. It’s made of a bunch of atoms bound together in a ring, like many other, simpler molecules. But if you could somehow zoom in on the ...

Start off in any direction and fly through the universe. Out of our solar system, beyond the edge of the Milky Way, through the forest of galaxies that make up our Local Group into the wilderness of ...

DNA nanostructures store and encrypt data using physical shape, enabling fast electronic readout and secure molecular information processing. (Nanowerk News) Since the dawn of the computer age, ...

Scientists have developed molecular devices that can switch roles, behaving as memory, logic, or learning elements within the same structure. The breakthrough comes from precise chemical design that ...
