From medicine to agriculture and aquaculture, bacteriophages are poised to have a huge global impact. As viruses which target ...

The twisting direction of metal nanoparticles is controlled to be right- or left-handed by adding chiral molecules, which are adsorbed onto the particle surface, during the electrochemical reduction ...

Scientists watched the nuclear spin of a single titanium atom switch in real time. They saw its state changes as a step-like jump in current and found that this tiny magnet can stay stable for around ...

In the new study, published Aug. 20 in the journal Physical Review Letters, the researchers accomplished this incredible feat by imaging how a valence electron — an electron in the outer shell of an ...

"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics. Paradoxically, his theory of relativity has become an essential tool for ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. This study investigates spin decoherence in metallic CNS ...

This schematic illustrates how regulating electron spin states through six key strategies—including defect engineering, valence modulation, and magnetic field application—can optimize catalytic ...

This research uncovers a groundbreaking link between electron spin and proton transport in biological environment, using lysozyme as a model system. Proton transfer, vital in many life processes, is ...

Growing evidence suggests that subatomic phenomena can shape fundamental activities in cells, including how organisms handle energy at the smallest scales. Quantum biology, as it’s being called, is no ...

In this study, chiral gold nanoparticles with a concave vortex cube structure were employed as the chiral substrate, exhibiting highly tunable optical chirality and intriguing chiral-induced spin ...
