A myriad of discrete and extended molecular assemblies have been prepared by coordinating metal ions to organic ligands, yet only a few have relied on planar components with a five-fold symmetry.

(Nanowerk News) Zinc-air batteries are an inexpensive, powerful battery alternative that can be used on the small scale to power electronics or on the large scale for electric vehicles or energy ...

Fullerenes are a fascinating class of carbon-based nanomaterials defined by their closed-cage molecular geometries. Their unique structure imparts exceptional electronic, optical, and mechanical ...

Scientists from the Skoltech Center for Energy Science and Technology (CEST) and the Institute for Problems of Chemical Physics of Russian Academy of Sciences have developed a novel approach for ...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is invaluable in the medical world. But despite all the good it does, there is room for improvement. One way to enhance the sensitivity of MRI is dynamic nuclear ...

A fullerene is a carbon compound whose molecule is made up of carbon atoms linked together by single and double bonds to create a closed or partly closed mesh with rings of 5 to 7 atoms. Graphene ...

Researchers have gained new insights into the unique chemical properties of spherical molecules composed entirely of carbon atoms, called fullerenes. They did it by making flat fragments of the ...

LipoFullerene TM has been highly reputed as a raw material for anti-aging cosmetics, and it has been renewed. VC60 spent almost 5 years to develop the natural-derived Fullerene, which is then stably ...

Researchers have demonstrated a switch, analogous to a transistor, made from a single molecule called fullerene. By using a carefully tuned laser pulse, the researchers are able to use fullerene to ...

This research reveals for the first time that C 60 fullerene--a molecule traditionally considered as inert support--can serve as an active catalytic site for CO 2 electroreduction. By uncovering how ...

As aging research expands worldwide, the scientific community continues to explore how reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress influence biological aging processes. Etheros develops ...

The team of scientists from Skoltech Center for Energy Science and Technology, the Institute for Problems of Chemical Physics of Russian Academy of Sciences and National Taiwan University have ...
