An international research team has successfully achieved single-molecule spectroscopic observation of hydrogen (H2) and deuterium (D2) confined within a picocavity. The picocavity was formed ...

The Roswell Molecular Electronics (ME) Chip™ boasts a fully miniaturized sensor, ultimately compatible, for the first time, with standard microchips, overcoming the greatest hurdles to molecular ...

The molecular carpets also come in nearly perfect models; however, these are not very stable, unfortunately. In these models the bonds between the molecules are very weak -- for instance hydrogen ...

The scientists were initially intrigued by how the ditolyl-ATI molecule tosses one of its hydrogen atoms back and forth between its two nitrogen atoms, a behavior the scientists thought could make ...

Better Hydrogen Storage Nanosponge works on molecular level /> CONTEXT: Hydrogen may be the fuel of the future, but major hurdles prevent it from being as versatile as oil. Storing hydrogen is one ...

Ho said the hydrogen molecule is an example of a two-level system because its orientation shifts between two positions, up and down and slightly horizontally tilted. Through a laser pulse, the ...

Construction of nano-sized structures by exploiting non-covalent interactions has received considerable attention due to their potential applications in molecular nanotechnology.

When an electron was introduced into a fullerene molecule, the shape of the electron distribution mimicked that of a hydrogen atom or an atom from the alkali metal group, which includes lithium ...

The construction of electronic devices from single molecular building blocks, which possess certain functions such as switching or rectifying and are connected by atomic-scale wires on a ...

Posted: August 28, 2009 IBM nanotechnology researchers first to image individual atoms within a molecule (Nanowerk News) IBM scientists have been able to image the “anatomy” -- or chemical structure - ...

Then they vapourised the model with hydrogen and watched what happened. For this observation in the molecular domain the team had, in an earlier project, employed a method called single-particle ...

Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute, Villigen and the ETH, Zurich, have combined to clarify the hydrogen spillover effect.
