In a study published in Angewandte Chemie International Edition, researchers from National Taiwan University report that a ...

Chemists discovered that a seemingly solid, nonporous crystal can 'come alive' when heated. A two-step transformation releases trapped molecules, drives a vivid blue - green - yellow glow, and even ...

Chameleons are famous for their color-changing abilities. Depending on their body temperature or mood, their nervous system directs skin tissue that contains nanocrystals to expand or contract, ...

A donor-acceptor pyrazinacene derivative with triphenylamine substituents selectively detects naphthalene via π-hole⋅⋅⋅π interactions, inducing a striking, reversible color change from greenish-blue ...
