Researchers at Kumamoto University, in collaboration with colleagues in South Korea and Taiwan, have discovered that a unique ...

The distribution of outermost shell electrons, known as valence electrons, of organic molecules was observed for the first time. As the interactions between atoms are governed by the valence electrons ...

Light microscopes have revolutionized our understanding of the microcosmos, but their resolution is limited to about 100 nanometers. To see how molecules bond, break, or change their structure, we ...

When light hits certain molecules, it dislodges electrons that then move from one location to another, creating areas of positive and negative charge. This 'charge transfer' is highly important in ...

Representing a molecule in a way that captures both its structure and function is central to tasks such as molecular property prediction, drug drug ...
