Newly devised static negative capacitor could improve computing

With a little physics ingenuity, scientists have designed a way to redistribute electricity on a small scale, potentially opening new avenues of research into more energy-efficient computing.

New biologically derived metal-organic framework mimics DNA

Chemical engineers have synthesized a biologically-derived metal-organic framework on which the hydrogen bonding that forms the DNA double helix can be mimicked and studied like never before.

Observing a molecule stretch and bend in real-time

An international team has observed the bending and stretching of a triatomic molecule with combined attosecond and picometre resolution.
