A new blue fluorescent molecule set new top emission efficiencies in both solid and liquid states, according to a University ...

If you cool a solid, the molecules move more slowly and move a little closer together. Step 2 Show an animation to help students compare atoms and molecules in solids and liquids. Explain that the ...

A research team has synthesized three-dimensionally shaped molecules containing an internal twist and shown that they possess ...

Solid is a state of matter in which the molecules are packed closely together and usually arranged in a regular pattern. A solid object has a fixed shape and volume.

Molecules in a viscous liquid. Blue regions are solid-like, green, yellow and red atoms are more liquid-like. Author provided. The reason it is hard to observe a liquid transforming to a perfectly ...

Sublimation occurs when molecules of a solid move fast enough to overcome the attractions from other molecules and become a gas. Since frozen carbon dioxide never becomes a liquid under normal ...

Molecules that makes up the solid crystals found in nature are generally so tightly packed together that there's no room for any of them to move. So despite their strength and durability, ...

In solids, it decays into an ionized state—a plasma—called warm dense matter, which is normally found only in extreme settings such as nuclear fusion reactions and the cores of giant planets.

A recent breakthrough in storage research may someday produce a new type of solid-state device that can be used like a hard disk drive and holds 1,000 times as much data.

Griessl, S. J. H. et al. Room-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy manipulation of single C60 molecules at the liquid–solid interface: Playing nanosoccer. J. Phys. Chem. B 108, 11556 ...

The solid-state pores provide a new way of studying the folding and pairing configurations of single long-chain molecules, the differences between chemically identical molecules in a statistical ...
