Researchers introduce a curious new class of linkage which could be used in everything from fundamental research to synthetic chemistry to robotics. Kaleidocycles are found where science, math, and ...

Obtaining structurally uniform nanocarbons in order to properly relate structure and function, ideally as single molecules, is a great challenge in the field of nanocarbon science. Thus, the ...

Kaleidocycles are found where science, math, and art meet. The objects resemble geometric sculptures that might be found in a modern art museum, but it is the motions they can undergo that really ...

A team has synthesized a belt-shaped molecular nanocarbon with a twisted Möbius band topology, i.e., a Möbius carbon nanobelt. Obtaining structurally uniform nanocarbons -- ideally as single molecules ...
