Chemists may soon have one less rigorous step to worry about when searching for the right molecules to accomplish their highly specific innovation needs. Scientists have now built a new machine ...

A new type of molecule, not only never before seen but not even predicted, was created with the aid of quantum computers.

Scientists have just created a new, strange type of molecule. It’s made of a bunch of atoms bound together in a ring, like many other, simpler molecules. The team, based at IBM Research, engineered ...

A newly isolated three-atom aluminum ring reveals unexpected chemistry that could help replace costly metals used in ...

An international team of scientists from IBM, The University of Manchester, Oxford University, ETH Zurich, EPFL and the ...

Researchers have developed a series of techniques to build carbon nanoribbons atom by atom, engineering their electronic properties from the ground up rather than carving them from bulk material.

This image depicts the radium atom’s pear-shaped nucleus of protons and neutrons in the center, surrounded by a cloud of electrons (yellow), and an electron (yellow ball with arrow) that has a ...

An international team of researchers at University of Manchester have created and characterised a molecule with properties never previously observed, using quantum computing to confirm its unusual ...

When molecules fall apart, their electric charge doesn't stay put—it rearranges as bonds stretch and break. An international team of scientists has now tracked these ultrafast changes in the small ...
