Adjusting the size and chemistry of nanocrystals within an ultrathin surface can speed up light-driven chemical reactions, ...
Manufactured chemicals and materials are necessary for practically every aspect of daily life, from life-saving pharmaceuticals to plastics, fuels and fertilizers. Yet manufacturing these important ...
Zinc–air batteries offer high theoretical energy density, intrinsic safety, and abundant raw materials, making them attractive for large-scale energy storage and flexible electronics. However, their ...
Chemists use gold nanorods to transfer light energy to molecules without contact, enabling efficient, low-waste, light-driven reactions. (Nanowerk News) Scientists are exploring many ways to use light ...
"Even though the molecule is absorbing the light and it's getting the energy, it doesn't always do the thing that you want it to do, which is to rip itself in half and catalyze some photochemical ...
A recent collaborative report, published in Science, including RASEI Fellow Niels Damrauer, addresses a key issue for light-driven chemistry, potentially opening up possibilities for future ...
