Many modern technological challenges crucially depend on the properties of surfaces and interfaces. This includes the control of charge and energy transfer across electrode/electrolyte interfaces in ...

A computational method for finding transition states in chemical reactions, greatly reducing computational costs with high reliability, has been devised. Compared to the most widely used existing ...

Mechanical metamaterials (MMs) are artificial materials designed to display peculiar mechanical properties or programmed responses thanks to careful optimization of their geometrical features 1,2.

Back in the old days—the really old days—the task of designing materials was laborious. Investigators, over the course of 1,000-plus years, tried to make gold by combining things like lead, mercury, ...
