Scientists have discovered that electrons in solar materials can be launched across molecules almost as fast as nature allows, driven by tiny atomic vibrations.

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have discovered that molecular vibrations can act like a catapult, flinging electrons across solar cell materials in roughly 18 femtoseconds, a timescale so ...

A tiny burst of motion inside a molecule may be enough to shove an electron across a solar material almost as fast as nature ...

Ferrocene is a key molecule for developing molecular machines. However, it readily decomposes on the surface of flat noble metal substrates, marking a significant challenge. Now researchers have ...

Researchers at the Center for Computational Sciences, University of Tsukuba, have developed an accessible platform to overcome the limitations of conventional static docking simulations, offering new ...

Electrons can be "kicked across" solar materials at almost the fastest speed nature allows, scientists have discovered, challenging long-held theories about how solar energy systems work. The finding ...

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

The 2nd AnDi Challenge benchmarked tools for analyzing single-molecule motion in cells, revealing key strengths and ongoing challenges in the field. (Nanowerk News) In the intricate world inside ...

Researchers from Germany, Japan and India, led by scientists from DESY and the Universities of Kiel and Hamburg, have found a way to collectively make molecules on a flat surface rotate by exposing ...

A team of researchers used a new technique, called high-resolution template matching, or HRTM, to uncover in unprecedented detail the movement of ribosomes -- the molecular structures that synthesize ...

Guest molecules slice through droplets of DNA polymers in the form of a frontal wave / Basis for a better understanding of biological processes. (Nanowerk News) Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg ...

In molecular shuttles, a ring molecule is threaded onto a linear molecular strand and can move between two portions of the strand, called stations, in response to external stimuli. Chemical stimulus, ...
