Photocatalysts facilitate chemical reactions by absorbing light. Metal-based photocatalysts are widely used in organic synthesis due to their durability and the ability to tune their function by ...

Researchers at Nagoya University have created a more efficient iron-based photocatalyst that could reduce the need for rare and expensive metals in advanced chemistry. Unlike earlier designs, the new ...

A blue-light-powered iron catalyst just replaced rare metals — and unlocked a milestone in precision drug synthesis.

Astrophysicists know that iron (chemical symbol: Fe) is one of the most abundant elements in the universe, after lightweight elements such as hydrogen, carbon and oxygen. Iron is most commonly found ...

Nagoya University scientists have created an iron-based photocatalyst that uses blue LEDs to synthesize medicinal compounds ...

Researchers captured in real time how iron-sulfur nanostructures form in solution, using time-resolved X-rays to follow the pathway from precursors to ultrathin layers. (Nanowerk News) Researchers at ...

Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO 4) is a compound salt with an olivine (LiMPO 4) structure that has a particular application in battery cathodes. The substance was first reported in the chemical ...
