These static shocks happen more often in winters because the air is typically drier than the summer air. The humidity levels ...

Photocatalysis involves three fundamental steps: light absorption, charge separation and transfer, and chemical reactions.

Nature has found an elegant solution to prevent this: Often, the transfer of electrons is coupled with the transfer of positively charged protons. This proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), as ...

There are two possible mechanisms here: Either electrons and protons are transferred simultaneously ("concerted"), or the transfer occurs in stepwise fashion—that is to say, with electrons and ...

THERYQ is developing a radiotherapy system that uses very high-energy electrons to treat deep-seated tumours, and can also enable FLASH treatments ...

One of the most significant challenges facing current nanozyme technologies is the lack of well-defined active sites, which ...

SorbiForce has developed a safe, sustainable battery using nothing but carbon, water, salt, and agricultural waste.

Researchers engineered Shewanella oneidensis to produce extracellular DNA hydrogels, enabling the development of biohybrid materials for use in energy, biotechnology, and regenerative systems.

The buildup of static charge often occurs due to friction. At a microscopic level, even smooth surfaces are rough and irregular.

The findings were published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ("Spatially resolved charge-transfer kinetics at the quantum ... we inject a photon and watch how the electrons are ...

Laser plasma acceleration is a potentially disruptive technology: It could be used to build far more compact accelerators and ...
