Novel X-ray Technique May Help Design Better Catalysts

By using a novel X-ray technique, researchers have observed a catalyst surface at work in real time and were able to resolve its atomic structure in detail. The new technique, pioneered at DESY's X-ray light source PETRA III, may pave the way for the design of better catalysts and other materials on the atomic level.

Moissanite Becoming Attractive Alternative to Natural Diamonds

Moissanite has a fascinating history. In 1893, Dr. Henry Moissan, a French chemist, examined rock samples from Meteor Crater in northern Arizona, and at first mistakenly identified what he found as diamonds. In 1904, he correctly identified the crystals as silicon carbide. The mineral form of silicon carbide was named moissanite in his honor. Until the 1950s, no other source for moissanite other than meteorites had been encountered.
