Fraser Stoddart, an organic chemist who shared a Nobel Prize for helping explore the potential of infinitesimal “molecular ...

J. Fraser Stoddart shared the 2016 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his design and creation of molecular machines through mechanical bonding. But his first priority these days isn’t research — it’s ...

Molecular motors come in all shapes and sizes, but they generally run on either chemical fuels or light. Now, a team led by J. Fraser Stoddart at Northwestern University has invented a molecular motor ...

A team of UCLA and California Institute of Technology chemists reports in the Jan. 25 issue of the journal Nature the successful demonstration of a large-scale, "ultra-dense" memory device that stores ...

The workshops of molecular machinists seem to be growing louder by the year. You can almost hear the imaginary whirring of their nanoscale devices, accompanied by an anvil chorus of tiny but ...

Researchers led by Northwestern University’s J. Fraser Stoddart, Liang Feng, and Yunyan Qiu created the mechanisorption system, which features functionalized chains attached to a MOF surface. Through ...

(Nanowerk News) Electric vehicles, powered by macroscopic electric motors, are increasingly prevalent on our streets and highways. These quiet and eco-friendly machines got their start nearly 200 ...
