The discovery of graphene—a one-atom-thick sheet of covalently bonded carbon atoms—inspired the research community to generate a variety of 2D materials. Graphene, MoS 2, the silicon equivalent of ...

The reactivity series is a list that shows the order of reactivity of some common metals. Calcium (Ca) Reacts vigorously with strong heating. Brick red flame observed and white solid formed. 2Ca + O 2 ...

Figure 1: Electronic structures of Co-containing perovskite oxides. Figure 2: Direct evidence of lattice oxygen oxidation involved in the OER of 18 O-labelled perovskites. Figure 3: pH-dependent OER ...

Oxygen, the molecule that supports intelligent life as we know it, is largely made by plants. Whether underwater or on land, they do this by photosynthesizing carbon dioxide. However, a recent study ...

Seemingly contradictory materials are trapped together in two glittering diamonds from South Africa, shedding light on how ...

It’s a helpful rule of thumb: Main group elements prefer forming bonds that give them eight valence electrons; transition metals go for 18 electrons. Now scientists have shown that main group elements ...

Complex metal alloys enter a new era of predictive design for aerospace and other high-temperature applications. Complex metal alloys enter a new era of predictive design for aerospace and other ...
