Most great discoveries are a result of happenstance. This is a story about a remarkably complex small molecule that can adopt either of two molecular shapes...
Macrocycles are complex molecules with unique three-dimensional shapes, that are difficult to synthesize in the lab. We show that a commercially available...
Stingless bee honey contains high levels of a rare special sugar called trehalulose, not normally found in in any other food. For the first time, this low...
We developed a nanoscale device that can mimic human brain cells for vision, by combining two promising nanomaterials, graphene and perovskite quantum dots....
Lithium-Sulfur battery can store more energy than the commonly-used Li-ion battery. But the high capacity of the Sulfur electrode causes it too much stress and...
Whereas tools break under high enough pressure, an atom cannot. Scientist have figured out how to use an atom-sized magnet to perform sensitive measurements...
Microrobots could perform medical procedures and serve as a non-invasive form of medical treatment. However, this would require an ability to change...
One of the biggest questions of our time is how gravity and quantum mechanics interact. We have achieved a long-sought-after step towards this goal by laser...
Metal halide perovskites improve the efficiency of silicon solar cells by 30%.
Our body has a vast amount of small blood vessels that deliver and take away wastes. These small blood vessels can clog in many diseases including malaria,...
Photons are intrinsically chargeless and non-magnetic. Using intrinsic properties of photons and a straightforward structure, we have created “synthetic...
A phonon is a quantum of atomic vibrations. According to quantum mechanics, these phonons are what allow heat to travel in any solid medium. The capacity of...
