You probably learned in high school chemistry class that core electrons don't participate in chemical bonding.

As the world searches for alternatives to lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries are emerging as a promising solution.

Scientists stabilize a sodium crystal structure, pushing solid-state batteries to perform at room and subzero temperatures.

In 1912, scientists invented X-ray crystallography and revealed a crystal’s atomic structure for the first time Tess Joosse Humans have marveled at crystals for millennia. Viridescent emerald, rich ...
