Atomic clocks based on stimulated resonance of cesium 133 or rubidium atoms are the most accurate clocks in relatively widespread use (there’s one in each GPS satellite), but they’re costly and ...

By fine-tuning the surroundings of single cobalt atoms, researchers reveal how tiny design changes can steer oxygen reactions ...

Proteins are social creatures. They’re also chameleons. Depending on a cell’s needs, they rapidly transform in structure and grab onto other biomolecules in an intricate dance. It’s not molecular ...

In what's being hailed as an important first for chemistry, an international team of scientists has developed a new technology that can selectively rearrange atomic bonds within a single molecule. The ...

Atomic coordination patterns in bulk materials can predict stable MXene structures, offering a new design framework that expands the 2D materials landscape beyond conventional synthesis routes.

Are you ready to design a "molecular" machine? Software that is a distant cousin of conventional solidmodeling packages may turn today's designers into molecular engineers. The future of technology is ...

The Committee on Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Sciences (CAMOS) supports scientific progress and assists the federal government in the planning of programs in these fields by providing advice on the ...
