Researchers shed new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that has attracted attention as a potential therapeutic target in cancer.

Every day, billions of cells in your body divide, helping to replace old and injured cells with new ones. And each time this ...

Empa opened a new laboratory that aims to harness quantum effects from carbon. This could pave the way for sustainable quantum ...

Working with carbon-based materials offers a decisive advantage: “While individual atoms only have one spin, nanographenes make it possible to create several linked spins,” says Bae. Making several ...

Redox chemistry describes a host of reactions that involve the gaining (reduction) and losing (oxidation) of electrons by ions in the reaction. It sometimes manifests as the gaining of hydrogen ...

A new carbon-based material, monolayer amorphous carbon (MAC), is revolutionizing materials science. Unlike graphene, which ...
