Solutions containing solvated electrons are inherently clean chemical reactants, and they could become easier and cheaper to make now that chemists have uncovered the long-sought mechanism of a ...

‘Green’ reducing agents could help tackle climate change and treat contaminated water. When scientists shine low-intensity near-ultraviolet light on metal nanoparticles, electrons in the nanoparticles ...

A study led by Northwestern University researchers has reported a way to observe hydrogel nano and microstructure while the hydrogel remains fully solvated. The approach reveals that methylcellulose, ...

Scientists generate low-energy electrons using ultraviolet light. Solvated dielectrons are the subject of many hypotheses among scientists, but have never been directly observed. They are described as ...

HOUSTON – (Jan. 18, 2023) – There are many ways to initiate chemical reactions in liquids, but placing free electrons directly into water, ammonia and other liquid solutions is especially attractive ...

When dielectrons are formed by excitation with ultraviolet light in tiny ammonia droplets containing a sodium atom, they leave traces in an unusual process that scientists have now been able to ...

The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

(Nanowerk News) There are many ways to initiate chemical reactions in liquids, but placing free electrons directly into water, ammonia and other liquid solutions is especially attractive for green ...
