Clearer look at how iron reacts in the environmentArgonne, IL (SPX) Sep 12, 2012 Using ultrafast X-rays, scientists for the first time have watched how quickly electrons hop their way through rust nanoparticles. This gives key insight to how iron oxide, one of the most abundant minerals in soil, behaves and alters the condition of soil and water around it. This also demonstrates the potential of time-resolved X-ray and optical methods to study chemical reactions at the subnanoscale in other semiconductors. Scientists have long known that certain minerals, redox active ions and ... read more |
