With electronics components getting ever smaller, quantum technology presents new opportunities for miniaturization. Soon a new quantum sensor will be able to measure the tiny magnetic fields of the ...

A team of chemists at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology has succeeded in pulling an oxygen atom from a molecule and replacing it with a nitrogen atom. In their study, published in ...

A new atomic-scale spectroscopy technique has produced 3D images of a 27-atom cluster with a spatial precision of less than 0.1 nm. Created by Tim Taminiau and colleagues at QuTech of Delft University ...

For almost a century, industrial chemists have had to rely on hellishly high temperatures and gas pressures to cleave the tenacious chemical bond that holds together each two-atom nitrogen molecule.

Researchers at the University of Oklahoma have developed a breakthrough method of adding a single nitrogen atom to molecules, unlocking new possibilities in drug research and development. Now ...

Ammonia (NH 3) is a substantial important fertilizer and chemical for human society, however, its production by the traditional Haber-Bosch process consumes substantial fossil fuel energy and produces ...
