Scientists have developed molecular devices that can switch roles, behaving as memory, logic, or learning elements within the ...

When we think of ions, we usually think of single atoms that have lost or gained some electrons, but entire molecules can also become ions. Physicists now show that cold molecular ions can be created ...

Normally, when liquids solidify, their molecules become locked in place, making it much harder for ions to move and leading to a steep decrease in ionic conductivity. Now, scientists have synthesized ...

One peek at the ion isn’t enough; scientists checked repeatedly if the calcium ion was bright or dark, proving that they had ...

Scientists have made leaps and bounds in bending atoms to their will, making them into everything from ultraprecise clocks to bits of quantum data. Translating these quantum technologies from obedient ...

We're part of an international team of scientists behind the creation of a new family of organic materials that can conduct ions - atoms or molecules ...

Note: This video is designed to help the teacher better understand the lesson and is NOT intended to be shown to students. It includes observations and conclusions that students are meant to make on ...

Water-containing layered materials have many potential applications, such as water purification and energy storage. However, the link between interlayer ion configuration and water architecture in ...
