Sum-frequency generation (SFG) is a powerful vibrational spectroscopy that can selectively probe molecular structures at ...

An estimated 2.8 million people in the U.S. contract infections each year from bacteria resistant to antibiotics, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control. More than 35,000 of them die.

Using robots and click chemistry, scientists built potential active ingredients for future antibiotics that contain metal. An ...

Researchers at Kumamoto University, in collaboration with colleagues in South Korea and Taiwan, have discovered that a unique ...

Earlier theories had forecast an appreciable drop in the reaction probability at low temperatures, but we could not confirm this either in the experiment or in new calculations by our colleagues on ...

Scientists recently created a never-before-seen four-atom molecule — the coldest of its kind ever made. Researchers created the oddball molecule — a strange configuration of sodium-potassium with an ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists at MIT discovered a method to create a kind of particle accelerator using a molecule of radium monofluoride. Once excited by lasers in a ...

Molecules like DNA are capable of storing large amounts of data without requiring an energy source, but accessing this molecular data is expensive and time consuming. Researchers have now developed an ...

The first clear picture ever made of a molecule was last week shown on a lantern slide. Some of the ablest U.S. scientists—members of the American Philosophical Society, founded 198 years ago by ...
