Researchers at Koç University have developed a light-driven method to produce porous semiconducting polymers under ambient ...
Scientists are exploring many ways to use light rather than heat to drive chemical reactions more efficiently, which could significantly reduce waste, energy consumption, and reliance on nonrenewable ...
Researchers at the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology (MIB) have demonstrated how genetically engineered enzymes can harness visible light to drive highly selective chemical reactions. This ...
"Even though the molecule is absorbing the light and it's getting the energy, it doesn't always do the thing that you want it to do, which is to rip itself in half and catalyze some photochemical ...
UC Santa Barbara researchers are building out the repertoire of chemical reactions, using light. In a paper published in the journal Nature, chemistry professor Yang Yang and collaborators at the ...
Chemical manufacturing is an energy-intensive industry; a team of chemists is designing a technique that could power the necessary reactions with sunlight or LEDs. Read from CU expert Arindam Sau and ...
Chemists use gold nanorods to transfer light energy to molecules without contact, enabling efficient, low-waste, light-driven reactions. (Nanowerk News) Scientists are exploring many ways to use light ...
