A University at Buffalo study provides new insights about core electrons, including their role in the B1-B2 transition that sees a compound's atomic crystal structure rearrange from an octahedral ...

The covalent bonds that hold complex molecules together can come in different forms. Atoms like carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen can form both single and double bonds, sharing two or four electrons.

“In this work, a comprehensive study on crystal structure and chemical bonding properties of CrB 2 was conducted using a combinatorial of theoretical calculations and experimental validations.

Researchers resolve the age-old mystery of why silicon cannot replace carbon in organic compounds. A new benchmark quantum chemical calculation of C2, Si2, and their hydrides for the first time ...

After some 30 years of trying different approaches to make a predicted allotrope of carbon, chemists have finally done it with a little atomic manipulation. The result is a ring of 18 carbon atoms ...

MIT researchers found that metals retain hidden atomic patterns once believed to vanish during manufacturing. These patterns ...
