Two-dimensional nanomaterials only a few atoms thick are being pushed to new frontiers, with scientists synthesizing MXenes ...

Since their discovery at Drexel University in 2011, MXenes — a family of nanomaterials with unique properties of durability, ...

Two-dimensional nanomaterials only a few atoms thick are being explored for a range of critical applications in biomedicine, ...

Entropy isn't well understood in systems that aren't at equilibrium, but a new experiment shows a non-equilibrium phenomenon that actually depends upon entropy.

I remember learning about entropy in my high school chemistry class: Iit’s something about the scientific tendency of a system to move toward chaos. I guess I’ll blame the messiness on that.

Now add to that a factor called “entropy”. It plays a role in determining if a given planet can sustain and grow complex life. Scientist Luigi Petraccone, a chemistry researcher at the University of ...

Researchers have developed a new 'high-entropy' metal alloy that has a higher strength-to-weight ratio than any other existing metal material.

This Collection will bring together the latest thinking and new understanding of high-entropy alloys and ceramics, and works related to their applications.

Adding energy to a group of ultracold atoms should make them fly away from each other with many different energies, but ...
