The technique, metal atom vapor chemistry, generates single atoms of metal, which behave quite differently from their more familiar bulk metal forms--and reacting these metal atoms may someday ...

Photoluminescent materials are more than just the glow-in-the-dark stars your parents glued to your bedroom ceiling as a child. Photoluminescent materials are widely used in applications ranging from ...

Chemists have uncovered an unusual example of host-guest behavior in the form of a six-membered heterocyclic metal ring that traps and releases a neutral palladium atom. The research introduces ...

Nanozymes are catalytic nanomaterials with enzyme-like characteristics that have attracted enormous recent research interest. The catalytic nanomaterials offer unique advantages of low cost, high ...

image: Read too many studies on single-atom (SA) catalysts on non-metallic supports? Here we give you an introduction of metal atoms atomically dispersed on an inorganic metal-based support and their ...

image: An one-pot chemoenzymatic cascade reaction to synthesize chiral alcohol was realized by using the highly active and selective enzyme-metal-single-atom hybrid as the catalyst. The ...
