Since the 1980s, researchers have sought to use laser light to control chemical reactions relevant to photochemistry, ...

Solar cells and photocatalysts can be surprisingly inefficient. Despite light consisting of many wavelengths, the range that even highly efficient devices use is limited. Other wavelengths, especially ...

Dr. Kate Biberdorf uses energetic chemistry experiments to make science engaging while challenging stereotypes about ...

Researchers have developed a self-driving chemistry lab that can autonomously search through hundreds of catalyst recipes and ...

Gas-phase ion–molecule reaction dynamics examine how charged species interact with neutral molecules under isolated conditions, revealing fundamental pathways that govern chemical reactivity in ...

Leo Gross is a physicist who has devoted his career to studying the fundamental secrets of chemistry—that is, how atoms and molecules behave and interact with one another. As leader of IBM’s atom and ...

Physicists are getting closer to controlling single-molecule chemical reactions -- could this shape the future of pharmaceutical research? Controlling matter at the atomic level has taken a major step ...

Developing new medicines can require thousands of chemistry experiments to identify the right recipe for a safe, effective and ideally affordable drug.

Reaction scheme and energetic level of the investigated reaction of the helium hydride ion with deuterium. It is a swift and barrierless reaction, contrary to earlier theories. Background: The ...
