Penn State researchers have uncovered a surprising twist in a foundational chemical reaction known as oxidative addition. Typically believed to involve transition metals donating electrons to organic ...

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) represent one of the most promising families of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials in advanced materials research. Characterized by their MX₂ formula—where M ...

Firm, market, and country level factors may weigh on metals production under a net-zero scenario. The clean energy transition needed to avoid the worst effects of climate change could unleash ...

To build all of the solar panels, wind turbines, electric vehicle batteries, and other technologies necessary to fight climate change, we’re going to need a lot more metals. Mining those metals from ...
