DFT calculations reveal a new reaction channel for chain growth from syngas building blocks

First international flight by Solar Impulse plane without any fuel other than the power supplied by the sun

New iridium(III) photosensitisers give best activity seen with iron-based water-reduction catalysts for light-driven water splitting

Absorbents that remove CO2 from ultra-dilute gas streams could capture CO2 straight from the air rather than at source

Renewable resources as a feedstock does not guarantee a cleaner fuel

Kilian Muñiz, Anthony K. Cheetham, Luis M. Liz-Marzán, and Helmuth Möhwald, are interviewed this month

An overview of the latest issue of Angewandte Chemie

Bacteria that electrocatalytically convert CO₂ to formate present a green alternative to traditional inorganic electrocatalysts

Much of sunlight’s energy is wasted as it lies in the near-infrared (NIR) region. New, stable NIR dyes collect and use this energy

Biosensor that uses antibodies detects marine pollutants and can provide real-time monitoring of oil spills to guide their clean-up
