By changing the physical structure of gold at the nanoscale, researchers can drastically change how the material interacts with light—and, as a result, its electronic and optical properties. This is ...

Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are narrow strips of graphene whose remarkable electronic properties arise from their reduced dimensionality and unique edge configurations. The quantum confinement and ...

Scientists have decoded the electronic structure of water, opening up new perspectives for technological and environmental applications. There is no doubt that water is significant. Without it, life ...

Materials scientists have discovered that perovskites, a class of promising materials that could be used for low-cost, high-performance solar cells and LEDs, have a previously unutilized molecular ...

A research team from Nanjing University has developed an in-situ on-device electrochemical intercalation method to manipulate the structural and electronic properties of MoS2 thin flakes, resulting in ...
