Scientists working at the Stanford Institute for Materials and Energy Sciences (SIMES) claim to have created a molecule-sized electronic component just a few nanometers long that conducts electricity ...
Scientists have married two unconventional forms of carbon -- one shaped like a soccer ball, the other a tiny diamond -- to make a molecule that conducts electricity in only one direction. This tiny ...
NEW YORK, May 6 (UPI) -- Oil giant ChevronTexaco has announced it can now refine from crude oil sizable quantities of diamond-like molecules that hold great potential for science and health ...
They sound like futuristic weapons, but electron guns are actually workhorse tools for research and industry: They emit streams of electrons for electron microscopes, semiconductor patterning ...
Diamondoids are nanoparticles made of only a handful of carbon atoms, arranged in the same way as in diamond, forming nanometer sized diamond crystals. Previously, researchers at the ALS demonstrated ...
Menlo Park, Calif. — Scientists have married two unconventional forms of carbon – one shaped like a soccer ball, the other a tiny diamond – to make a molecule that conducts electricity in only one ...
Diamondoids are nanometre‐sized, cage-like hydrocarbon molecules that mirror the diamond lattice in a molecular form. Adamantane, the smallest diamondoid, serves as the fundamental building block for ...
Scientists at Stanford University and the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have discovered a way to use diamondoids - the smallest possible bits of diamond - to assemble ...
Deposition of diamondoids can be particularly problematic during production and transportation of natural gas, gas condensates, and light crude oils. These low-molecular-weight compounds which have ...
Forensic investigators searching for oil spill culprits have a new tool for tracking down whodunit. Researchers at Environment Canada, in Ottawa, characterized diamondoid compounds for use in ...
Self-assembled monolayers of molecular diamonds on metal substrates have excellent electron-emission properties, bringing field-emission displays based on diamondoids a step closer to reality.
