A recent study explored a new approach to improve photocatalytic performance by using alternating donor-acceptor (D-A) units in graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4). The researchers created a series of metal-free photocatalysts, named CNBTC-X, by combining g-C3N4 with different amounts of 5-bromo-2-thi
Imagine you could make ammonia and long-lasting batteries from something as common as nitrates. That's exactly what scientists have done by creating copper nitride (Cu3N) nanocrystals. The secret lies in a special reaction called nitrate reduction, which involves moving 8 electrons around. This reac
Scientists are boosting the power of tiny metal particles by making them more porous and packed with multiple metals. Imagine a small house (the core) with a unique shape, surrounded by a wall made of many types of bricks (the shell). When these tiny 'houses' are made just right, they can do amazing
Since 2018, there's been a steady split between the U. S. and China's economies due to trade tensions. Then a surprising twist: the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. How did this affect U. S. imports? Let's look at how U. S. importers dealt with the trade war and the pandemic lockdowns. We'll explore the i
In the evening of a recent Saturday, a tragic event unfolded at the Wuxi Vocational Institute of Arts and Technology in Yixing, China. A man, identified as Wu, went on a stabbing spree, leaving eight people dead and 17 injured. Police reports reveal that Wu's frustration with his academic and job si
The Qaidam Basin, nestled on the Tibetan Plateau, has long intrigued researchers due to its prehistoric settlement patterns. However, a lack of precise data has made it challenging to understand the Bronze Age chronology and how ancient people used the landscape. Recently, scientists uncovered 24 ne
Recycling household waste is a growing challenge as cities get bigger and we generate more trash. Picking the right spot for a new recycling plant involves many factors, like sustainability. This study aims to create a new decision-making model to rate and choose the best locations. It's divided int
Imagine you're trying to build a better machine for breaking down pollutants in water. One clever way to do this is by tweaking the machine's tiny parts, creating some missing pieces on purpose. In this case, scientists used ZnIn 2 S 4 nanosheets and left out some zinc atoms, creating what are
At a single hospital, patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) who didn't respond to initial treatments were given either lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) or axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel). Liso-cel is newer and not widely studied outside clinical trials yet. From June 2021 to September 2022
Google Opinion Rewards is undergoing a significant change. Users are now prompted to agree to share their location data to continue receiving local surveys. This shift is due to Google's decision to store location data locally on devices instead of servers. Previously, the app relied on your device'
