Electron dot structure of covalent molecules on the basis of duplet and octet of electrons (example: hydrogen, chlorine, nitrogen, ammonia, carbon tetrachloride, methane.

Scientists at OIST have defied a foundational rule in chemistry by creating a stable 20-electron version of ferrocene—an ...

The first black hole images stunned the world in 2019, with headlines announcing evidence of a glowing doughnut-shaped object ...

A joint international research team has, for the first time, revealed the crucial link between the structure of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and the efficiency of lithium-mediated ...

Ever wonder why nitrogen rings are so important in chemistry? Nitrogen heterocycles are found in many drugs, dyes, and ...

In this work, a highly selective and sensitive method has been developed for the detection of trinitrophenol (TNP), which is a dangerous explosive. For this purpose, N and P co-doped carbon dots ...

A derivative of the metal-organic complex ferrocene has 20 valence electrons in a stable configuration, overturning the expectation for the last 100 years of a ceiling at 18 valence electrons.

Each of the three isomeric pyridyl radicals (2-, 3-, and 4-dehydropyridines) contains a lone pair and an unpaired electron. As a result, a potential two centered–three electron interaction between the ...

We have investigated a metal-gated QD charge pump device whose potential profile can be controlled. The proposed pump is uniquely designed with several metallic gates on a GaAs/AlGaAs two-dimensional ...
