If nonliving materials can produce rich, organized mixtures of organic molecules, then the traditional signs we use to ...

When a molecule emits a blink of light, it doesn't expect it to ever come back. However researchers have now managed to place single molecules in such a tiny optical cavity that emitted photons, or ...

CAMBRIDGE, England, June 13 (UPI) --Researchers have mixed molecules with light at room temperature. It's the first time such a feat has been accomplished. Scientists did so by trapping a colored dye ...

In the world of small things, shape, order and orientation are surprisingly important, according to findings from a new study. Chemists used computer simulations to study a very simple model of ...

In chemistry, breaking a mirror isn’t always a harbinger of bad luck. Using a trio of catalysts and some blue light, researchers have transformed a racemic mixture of mirror-image molecules into a ...

Introduction You probably know some liquids, such as oil and water, do not mix together. If you pour them into the same container, they will form separate liquid layers, one on top of the other. Other ...

(Nanowerk News) When a molecule emits a blink of light, it doesn't expect it to ever come back. However researchers have now managed to place single molecules in such a tiny optical cavity that ...

Researchers have successfully used quantum states to mix a molecule with light at room temperature, which will aid in the exploration of quantum technologies and provide new ways to manipulate the ...
