As summer kicks into full gear and people are spending more time outside, there's one thing on many people's minds—ticks.

Many displays found in smartphones and televisions rely on thin-film transistors (TFTs) made from indium gallium zinc oxide ...

Insights into atomic-scale defects may enable next-generation thin-film transistors for smartphones, televisions, and ...

"Theories involving substantial formation of stars prior to or together with the black hole formation and growth are very unlikely." ...

Photosystem II (PSII) is the only biological machine capable of splitting water into oxygen using sunlight. It plays a ...

For more than a century, the well-known 18-electron rule has guided the field of organometallic chemistry. Now, researchers ...

Based on first-principles calculations of the average net charges and partial densities of states, we suggest that Ti substitution effectively enhances the binding between transition metals and oxygen ...

Here we use cryogenic electron microscopy to determine the structure of TbAQP2 from Trypanosoma brucei, bound to either the substrate glycerol or to the sleeping sickness drugs, pentamidine or ...

This may be accompanied by oxygen vacancies in the surface layer. If 0.5 of an electron per unit cell accumulates in the interfacial TiO 2 plane, the catastrophe is avoided.

A previously unknown structure discovered in our cells could pave the way toward new treatments for various genetic disorders ...

The impacts of charge trapping and filament-induced anisotropy on the resistive switching mechanism in hafnia are formulated and quantified. Using ab initio calculations, we find the energetics and ...

An atom consists of a heavy center, called the nucleus, made of particles called protons and neutrons. An atom has lighter particles called electrons that you can think of as orbiting around the ...
