• This bacterium gets paid in gold
  

  A bacterium named Moorella thermoacetica won't work for free. But UC Berkeley researchers have figured out it has an appetite for gold. And in exchange for this special treat, the bacterium has revealed a more efficient path to producing solar fuels through artificial photosynthesis. M. thermoacetic more

• All-in-one light-driven water splitting
  

  Solar-powered water splitting is a promising means of generating clean and storable energy. A novel catalyst based on semiconductor nanoparticles has now been shown to facilitate all the reactions needed for “artificial photosynthesis”. In the light of global climate change, there is an urgent need more

• Quantum Dot White LEDs Achieve Record Efficiency

  Researchers have demonstrated nanomaterial-based white-light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that exhibit a record luminous efficiency of 105 lumens per watt. Luminous efficiency is a measure of how well a light source uses power to generate light. With further development, the new LEDs could reach efficienc more

Transition Metals

This graphic looks at some general properties of the transition metals – I had a little less space to work with than with the previous graphics, on account of the large number of elements that the transition metals encompass, but hopefully what’s included is still of use. more

  A novel hydrophobic ionic liquid including N,N,N׳,N׳-tetrakis(2-methylpyridyl)-1, 2-phenylenediamine-4-amido structure ((IL-1,2-tpbd)+NTf2-) was successfully synthesized. (IL-1,2-tpbd)+NTf2- combined one amido (O-hard donor) and four pyridine (N-soft donor) groups. Its separation behaviors of Cd2+ a more

• Two Azo-functionalized Luminescent 3D Cd(II)-MOFs for Highly Selective Detection of Fe3+ and Al3+

  Two cadmium based 3D luminescent MOFs {[Cd2(SA)2(L)2]·H2O}n (Cd-MOF-1) and [Cd(CDC)(L)]n (Cd-MOF-2) (H2SA = succinic acid, H2CDC = 1,4-Cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, L = [3,3'-azobis(pyridine)], S = Guest molecules) have been assembled by employing organic dicarboxylic acid linkers with an unexploite more
