A new study reveals how different synthesis methods can profoundly impact the structure and function of high entropy oxides, a class of materials with applications in everyday electronic devices. A ...

Researchers have developed a novel method for synthesizing acetylene from carbon dioxide without using fossil fuels Since its discovery, in 1836, acetylene has emerged as an essential chemical ...

A team of chemists has unveiled a novel method to simplify the synthesis of piperidines, a key structural component in many pharmaceuticals. The study combines biocatalytic carbon-hydrogen oxidation ...

Quantum dots are composed of semiconducting materials like cadmium selenide (CdSe) or indium arsenide (InAs) and can be synthesized through various methods. For instance, colloidal synthesis and ...

Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are semiconducting crystals. They exist on a nanometer scale (ca. 2–12 nm) and are coated with ligand/surfactant molecules to avoid agglomeration. Due to their size, CQDs ...
