Chemists craft molecule that self-assembles into flower-shaped crystalline patterns
02-Dec-2015
Designing new materials at the molecular level is a key goal of the U.S. government's Materials Genome Initiative, a project launched in 2011 to reduce the cost, and speed the creation, of these materials. As recipients of funds from the NSF's Designing Materials to Revolutionize and Engineer our ...
Researchers combine disciplines, computational programs to determine atomic structure
27-Aug-2015
A team from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Indiana University combined two techniques to determine the structure of cyanostar, a new abiological molecule that captures unwanted negative ions in solutions. When Semin Lee, a chemist and Beckman Institute postdoctoral fellow at ...
Researchers propose alternative way to allocate science funding
09-Jan-2014
Researchers in the United States have suggested an alternative way to allocate science funding. The method, which is described in EMBO reports, depends on a collective distribution of funding by the scientific community, requires only a fraction of the costs associated with the traditional peer ...
'Self-cleaning' pollution-control technology could do more harm than good
17-Jun-2013
Research by Indiana University environmental scientists shows that air-pollution-removal technology used in "self-cleaning" paints and building surfaces may actually cause more problems than they solve. The study finds that titanium dioxide coatings, seen as promising for their role in breaking ...
Winner of Cram Lehn Pedersen Prize 2011 announced
18-Feb-2011
Professor Amar Flood, from Indiana University, USA, has won the inaugural Cram Lehn Pedersen prize. The prize, sponsored by Royal Society of Chemistry journal Chemical Communications and named in honour of the winners of the 1987 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, recognises significant, original and ...
Closing in on a carbon-based solar cell
15-Apr-2010
To make large sheets of carbon available for light collection, Indiana University Bloomington chemists have devised an unusual solution -- attach what amounts to a 3-D bramble patch to each side of the carbon sheet. Using that method, the scientists say they were able to dissolve sheets ...
Designer molecule detects tiny amounts of cyanide, then glows
26-Oct-2009
A small molecule designed to detect cyanide in water samples works quickly, is easy to use, and glows under ultraviolet or "black" light. Although the fluorescent molecule is not yet ready for market, its Indiana University Bloomington creators report in the Journal of the American Chemical ...
