An international research team has successfully achieved single-molecule spectroscopic observation of hydrogen (H 2) and deuterium (D 2) confined within a picocavity. The picocavity was formed between ...

Although it is the smallest and lightest atom, hydrogen can have a big impact by infiltrating other materials and affecting their properties, such as superconductivity and metal-insulator-transitions.

Hydrogen isotope fractionation arises when processes in the water cycle, biogeochemical reactions and living organisms preferentially partition protium (1H) and deuterium (2H). In environmental ...

There is a heat treatment called "high-pressure hydrogen annealing" that reduces defects in semiconductors. How does it ...

Hydrogen is in great demand due to its promising role as a sustainable resource in the energy transition. Researchers have made an important breakthrough in the efficient and cost-effective provision ...

Scientists have produced one of the most neutron-rich isotopes, hydrogen-6, in an electron scattering experiment. The experiment presents a new method for investigating light, neutron-rich nuclei and ...

Deuterium is a stable isotope of hydrogen, which, unlike “normal” hydrogen atoms, or protium, also contains a neutron. The isotope deuterium has one proton, one neutron and one electron. One out of ...

Isotope analysis by InnoTech Alberta confirms deep thermogenic gas across 17 kilometres of the Cumberland Basin;three ...

As part of the Hydrogen Isotopes 1,2,3H Research Training Group, a team from Leipzig University and TU Dresden has made a significant advancement in the effective and economical provision of isotopes, ...
