Synthesis of layered platelets by self-assembly of rhenium-based clusters directed by long-chain amines
Materials science: Small molecules hold atomic clusters together Scaffolds made of chain-shaped molecules can be erected and dismantled to control the assembly of small atomic clusters. Andrés Seral-Ascaso, Valeria Nicolosi and colleagues from Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, developed a method to l...
