Tubes, visible in light green, are roughly seven nanometers in diameter — about two million times smaller than an ant — and several microns long,…
A new study, published in Science on May 12th, 2022, found a new method to purify water that is 2400 times faster than even experimental…
Water molecules flow near the honeycomb-patterned walls of a carbon nanotube. Interactions between the molecules and electrons in the walls can cause ‘quantum friction,’ researchers…
