Quantum tunneling of hydrogen on graphene surface (left panel); and comparison of diffusion coefficients in classical and quantum processes (right panel). Recently, a research group led by Prof. YANG ...

(Nanowerk News) A group of researchers has created a simple and inexpensive means to visualize the atomic state of hydrogen. Details of their breakthrough were published in the journal Acta Materialia ...

A series of "states" (dots) connected with "transitions" (lines) in a complex system. Bigger dots correspond to states where more time is spent during simulation, thicker lines for faster transitions.

Researchers have recast diffusion in multicomponent alloys as a sum of individual contributions, called 'kinosons.' Using machine learning to compute the statistical distribution of the individual ...

British biochemist Professor Frederick Sanger was awarded his second Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1980. He is only the third person to win Nobel Prizes for science in the history of he awards and ...

A group from Nagoya University in Japan has created a new technique for growing the tiny metal nanowires (NWs) that are expected to be used in next-generation electronics. Their results suggest a way ...

New method simulates electronic friction effects on quantum motion, explaining hydrogen diffusion on copper with relevance to catalysis and energy storage. (Nanowerk News) George Trenins and Mariana ...
