Pt 1 Cu 30 cluster catalysts with each Pt atom coordinated to nine Cu atoms and coated with a thin carbon layer, were prepared using a surface engineering strategy, which demonstrated exceptional ...

The surface of ice is a slippery subject. For more than 160 years, scientists have been debating the quirks of ice’s exterior. Frozen water is coated in a layer of molecules that behave like a liquid.

In certain instances, direct access to a structure being studied may not be possible due to mechanical constraints, such as device packaging or limitations related to the samples themselves. To ...

Electrochemical cells – or batteries, as a well-known example – are complex technologies that combine chemistry, physics, materials science and electronics. More than power sources for everything from ...
