What happens when molecular springs are compressed?
Published:
Helicenes are fascinating helical molecules whose twisted structures resemble tiny springs. Although they have long been considered promising building blocks for molecular machines, little is known about how their properties change when they are mechanically compressed.
A world-unique platform is built to combine high pressure and swift heavy ion irradiation
Published:
This work introduces a unique experimental platform that combines static pressure with swift heavy ion irradiation, enabling the study of materials under two extreme conditions simultaneously.
A Molecular Route from Nanographene to Nanodiamonds
Published:
Nanodiamonds are emerging materials for quantum sensing, bioimaging, single-photon emission, and quantum information technologies. However, the synthesis of ultrasmall nanodiamonds with precise control over size, crystallinity, and defect incorporation has remained a long-standing challenge.
