Plutonium has captured the attention of scientists since its discovery in the early 1940s. This enigmatic element has an important role to play in emerging energy technologies like nuclear batteries ...

For a little more than a century, chemists have believed that strong atomic links called covalent bonds are formed when atoms share one or more electron pairs. Now, researchers have made the first ...

A group of researchers at the University of Tokyo have spent years testing the limits of chemical bonds. And now, after years of work, they've finally explored an idea originally proposed in 1931: a ...

What are Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs)? Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) are composed of light elements such as oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon, connected by strong covalent bonds, providing ...
