Industry uses magnetic materials in applications ranging from data storage and cell phones to motors and sensors. Researchers are always looking for new magnetic particles as the technology moves to smaller and smaller scales. In this study, researchers first theoretically predicted, designed, and then synthesized a new, extremely small, thermally stable magnetic nanoparticle.
A research team led by Baylor University chemists has taken a groundbreaking step forward in eliminating the exclusion of individuals with blindness from chemistry education and experiences.
Researchers have developed floating 'artificial leaves' that generate clean fuels from sunlight and water, and could eventually operate on a large scale at sea.
