Straightforward skeletal editing chemistry now enables the direct insertion of nitrogen into carbon–carbon double bonds.

CF Industries poised for 30% growth with rising EU gas prices, low US gas costs, and strong corn demand boosting nitrogen ...

One way of creating a time crystal is to knock some of the carbon atoms out of the crystal lattice of diamond, creating what ...

Biology might ultimately provide a solution, however. Researchers have identified bacteria that evolved the ability to digest ...

Working at nanoscale dimensions, billionths of a meter in size, a team of scientists revealed a new way to measure high-speed fluctuations in magnetic materials. Knowledge obtained by these new ...

Gehringer explains, "Nitrogen gas is a mixture of the light atom 14 N and the heavier atom 15 N. When modern microbes use nitrogen in their metabolism, they use these two isotopes in a certain ...

A nitrogen-vacancy center is an atomic-scale defect in diamond where a nitrogen atom takes the place of a carbon atom, and a neighboring carbon atom is missing, creating a special configuration of ...

To help find solutions to the planet's climate crisis, MIT Associate Professor Daniel Suess is looking to Earth's ancient ...

Using first-principles calculations, a research group led by Prof. WANG Xianlong from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, found that phosphorus doping is an ...

Scientists in Germany have achieved something never seen before: creating a stable boron-carbon triple bond. While triple bonds exist between many element pairs, boron and carbon had stubbornly ...

En-route to nuclear clocks, researchers have found a resonant mode in thorium atom nuclei with a low temperature coefficient - nuclear oscillators are ...
