But a recent discovery by a multi-university collaboration of researchers, led by Drexel University researcher Yury Gogotsi, PhD, and Drexel alumnus Babak Anasori, PhD, who is now an associate ...

In the tug-of-war between order and chaos within multielemental carbides, entropy eventually claims victory over enthalpy by pushing the system toward complete disorder as the diversity of elements in ...

Maintaining the order and stability that is vital for more widespread and predictably reliable nanomaterial applications is finicky. Researchers have succeeded in putting up to nine transition metals ...

Two-dimensional nanomaterials only a few atoms thick are being pushed to new frontiers, with scientists synthesizing MXenes that pack up to nine transition metals into a single ultrathin sheet. The ...

The transuranic elements represent an intriguing frontier where chemical wisdom yields to relativistic effects, and the pace of progress is dictated by the technical challenges of handling small ...
