A new environmental chamber constructed by Argonne's Materials Science Division allows researchers to watch materials as they grow step-by-step while interacting in elevated-temperature, reactive-gas environments. The first ...
The fusion of membranes is essential for many processes in the human body, for instance, in the communication between nerve cells. A single fusion event occurs on the nanometer scale and takes less than a millisecond. Using ...
Local defects tune the vibrational modes of carbon nanotubes Accessing vibrational modes of molecular chains at the site of a specific atom in molecules is no longer a dream. Using a scanning tunneling microscopy technique ...
F. Jackel and group of scientists from Max-Planck-Institute and Humboldt University Berlin, Germany present a prototypical single-molecule chemical-field-effect transistor, in which the current through a hybrid-molecular ...
