- Einstein's relativity rules chemical bonds in heavy elements, new research shows
New research from Brown University demonstrates that Einstein's theory of relativity influences chemical bonds in heavy elements. The study highlights the role of relativistic effects in the chemical behavior of these elements.
- Carbon nanotube wiring gets closer to competing with copper
Carbon nanotubes, once seen as a revolutionary material, faced challenges in purity and conductivity. Recent research in Science shows a chemical treatment improves their current-carrying capacity closer to copper's performance, suggesting potential future applications.
