A team of researchers affiliated with multiple institutions in the U.S. and China and one in Australia has developed a way to use electrons to accelerate molecular recognition. In their paper published in the journal Nature, ...
An international team of researchers has found a way to create 2D nanosheets in which the molecules in the layers are bound only by weak, non-covalent bonds. In their paper published in the journal Nature, the group describes ...
A polymer that catalyzes its own formation in an environmentally friendly solvent-free process has been developed by an all-RIKEN team of chemists. The discovery could lead to the development of inherently recyclable polymer ...
