Start off in any direction and fly through the universe. Out of our solar system, beyond the edge of the Milky Way, through the forest of galaxies that make up our Local Group into the wilderness of ...

Abstract: Accurate molecular representation plays a crucial role in expediting the process of drug discovery. Graph neural networks (GNNs) have demonstrated robust capabilities in molecular ...

Researchers have engineered a novel M 6 L 4 octahedral molecular cage by integrating photoactive cyclometalated platinum(II) units, creating a visible-light-responsive "nanoreactor" that drives highly ...

Peking University, August 26, 2025: Zero-dimensional(0D) metal hilades are highly-valued molecular-level materials that underpin semiconductors used in optoelectronics, particularly for solar cells ...

Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have emerged as highly promising materials for optoelectronic applications, with all-inorganic MHPs presenting enhanced stability compared to their hybrid counterparts.

The shape of tiny silver seeds made of fewer than 200 atoms depends on their precise size and temperature and defines the shape of the final nanoparticle. (Nanowerk News) Researchers have long known ...

Certain cells have an unusual shape that is similar to an oak leaf or puzzle piece, and researchers have found that the form of these cells helps them withstand dramatic changes in volume. These cells ...
