Colloidal chemistry of fullerene solutions investigates how C₆₀, C₇₀ and related cage-like molecules organise and stabilise when dispersed in various solvents. Depending on solvent polarity, solvation ...

Nomination Period Extended: Due to the impacts of the federal government shutdown on many of our members, we have extended the nomination period for the 2027 National Awards until December 15 at 11:59 ...

Surface chemistry governs the stability, optical properties and functional integration of colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) by mediating the interactions between inorganic cores and their surrounding ...

Research into the synthesis of new materials could lead to more sustainable and environmentally friendly items such as solar panels and light emitting diodes (LEDs). Scientists have developed a ...

Affordable clean energy and climate action are two of the sustainable development goals set by the United Nations to be achieved by 2030. The vast majority of energy technologies relies on ...

Colloidal nanocrystals (CNs) are artificially grown inorganic particles stabilized by surfactants. Those smaller than 10 nm can transform their optical and electronic properties and exhibit a quantum ...
