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 ...

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 ...

Direct oxidation of methane to methanol is dominated by transition- or noble-metal-based catalysts, thus making the reaction quite expensive. To make the process efficient and cost-effective, ...
