A rare copper nanocluster has been synthesised that behaves as a ‘superatom’. The Chinese team hopes it will unlock copper’s ...

Copper atoms trapped in MXene nanochannels remove 94.9% of bisphenol A in 5 minutes by concentrating reactants and lowering ...

Scientists have discovered a way to control chemical reactions by carefully arranging copper atoms on a carbon-based material. With just tiny changes at the atomic scale, the same material can be ...

Detailed architecture of different copper nanoclusters. All the nanoclusters have identical numbers of copper atoms, thiolate ligands and hydrides. The alteration is visible only in PPh₃ ligand ...

Researchers report a Cu-based catalyst on graphitic carbon nitride with tunable atomic configurations, revealing that intercalated Cu dual-atom selectively drives CO2 reduction to methane with 88% ...

The copper isotope Cu-64 plays an important role in medicine: it is used in imaging processes and also shows potential for cancer therapy. However, it does not occur naturally and must be produced ...

Just like we recycle waste, repurposing excess CO2 from the atmosphere could be one way to abate the worsening climate crisis. In electrochemical reduction, CO2 is converted into industrial products ...
