Abstract: Abstract In this work, cerium dioxide nanoparticles (CeNPs) were synthesized by thermal decomposition of cerium oxalate decahydrate Ce2(C2O4)3ยท10H2O. Although a large amount of water was removed along with CO2, the product of decomposition retained the… read more here.

Abstract: Reaction kinetics drives chiral nanocrystal formation from helically bonded tellurium atoms A glove fits only one of our hands because the mirror images of gloves (and our hands) cannot be superimposed. Molecules or crystals that… read more here.
