Researchers have discovered a new way to grow graphene that deliberately adds structural defects to enhance its usefulness in ...

Three-dimensional structures of boron nitride sheets and nanotubes may offer a way to keep small electronic devices cool, according to scientists. Three-dimensional structures of boron nitride might ...

The three states of matter can be represented by the particle model. This model explains the properties of substances in their different states, as well as changes of state. Changes of state: ...

Sir Andre Geim, professor of physics at the University of Manchester, has the distinction of being the only person to have been awarded both a Nobel and an Ig Nobel Prize. The Nobel represents the ...

GNRs can be synthesized through top-down or bottom-up methods, each providing precise control over their structure and enabling their use in advanced nanoelectronics and spintronics. GNRs are created ...

German and US scientists recently reported an unusual feat: they observed the world's fastest chemical reaction, during which hydrogen atoms bind onto and then leave a sheet of graphene, all within ...

Not so long ago, graphene was the great new wonder material. A super-strong, atom-thick sheet of carbon “chicken wire,” it can form tubes, balls, and other curious shapes. And because it conducts ...

Part of Chemistry (Single Science) Unit 1: Structures, trends, chemical reactions, quantitative chemistry and analysis In chemistry, ‘bonding’ describes how atoms are held together. ‘Structure’ ...
