Porous solids are abundant in the world. Examples include activated carbon, zeolite, and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Solid electrolytes in next-generation batteries have ion migration channels ...

But they were intrigued that one of the most hazardous PFAS—perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), once used in nonstick pans and firefighting foam—appeared in slightly different structural forms, known ...

NMR spectroscopy is very useful for identifying the chemical structure of compounds. It is not just capable of offering data with regards to the functional groups present but also offers data about ...

One hundred years after “nuclear isomers” were first discovered, Philip Walker and Zsolt Podolyák pick five examples of these long-lived, excited nuclear states to show why they are so important in ...

Nuclear isomers are crucial probes for studying the structure of nuclei. Unlike chemical isomers—which have the same chemical formula but different arrangements of atoms—nuclear isomers are nuclei ...
