Researchers used computer simulations to show how the assembly of vertex-truncated tetrahedra is affected when confined inside a spherical container. The findings offer materials scientists a new method for controlling the assembly structure and characteristics of the resulting material.
The surface-modified, dye-sensitized nanosheet catalyst shows immense potential, as it can suppress undesirable back electron transfer and improve water splitting activity up to a hundred times.
To capture as much information as possible about clouds of atoms at the heart of the MAGIS-100 experiment, SLAC scientists devised a dome of mirrors that gathers more light from more angles.
