The metal-insulator transition is one of the remarkable electrical properties of atomically thin molybdenum disulphide. Although the theory of electron–electron interactions has been used in modelling ...
The researchers used state-of-the art attosecond transient absorption spectroscopy (ATAS), an ultrafast method for examining electronic motion, tostudy the collective behavior of electrons in the ...
Speeding up chemical reactions is key to improving industrial processes or mitigating unwanted or harmful waste. Realizing these improvements requires that chemists design around documented reaction ...
Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 2023, DOI: https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpcc.2c07969 Water dissociation on transition metal oxide (TMO) surfaces regulates their ...
It’s a helpful rule of thumb: Main group elements prefer forming bonds that give them eight valence electrons; transition metals go for 18 electrons. Now scientists have shown that main group elements ...
A team of scientists from the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) in Hamburg and the Department of Physics at ETH Zurich in Switzerland, together with the Center for ...
An international team of scientists involving the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) in Hamburg has unraveled the light-induced electron-localization dynamics in ...
