Flat is fine for a sheet of paper, but many of the most useful molecules need depth. Now, researchers from Japan have found a ...

When drugmakers want to improve on compounds they have already created, they can replace a carbon atom with a nitrogen atom.

If computer chips could be built from semiconductors just one atom thick, they could pack far more transistors into a smaller ...

A new reagent has moved carbon-atom transfer out of the chemical flatlands, allowing chemists to place a single carbon atom so that it makes bonds to four different substituents. The reagent makes ...

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are widely regarded as a clean and efficient energy conversion technology, particularly for electric vehicles and portable power systems. However, their ...
