A team from The University of Osaka has created nickel(0)-boron bonds in square-planar complexes. The researchers prepared ...

Although the square-planar geometry is more common for the 2+ oxidation state of nickel, spectroscopic analysis confirmed this unusual electronic structure in this new complex. The new nickel ...

Highly charged heavy ions form a very suitable experimental field for investigating quantum electrodynamics (QED), the ...

University of Queensland scientists have cracked a long-standing puzzle in nuclear physics, showing that nuclear polarization ...

Polaritons are hybrid particles made up of a photon strongly coupled to an electric dipole. Examples of such a dipole include an electron–hole pair in a semiconductor, which forms an exciton ...

Mar. 20, 2025 — Researchers have engineered yeast to efficiently convert methanol into D-lactic acid, a key compound for biodegradable plastics and pharmaceuticals. By optimizing gene and ...

Mar. 26, 2025 — Researchers have developed a molecular system for controlled release of iron. They integrated ferrocene, a molecular sandwich that encloses an iron atom, with a carbon 'nanohoop'.
