Chemical reactions often produce messy mixtures of different products. Hence, chemists spend a lot of time coaxing their reactions to be more selective to make particular target molecules. Now, an .
Researchers have used multiple techniques to apply voltages directly to individual bonds between atoms in a molecule, breaking them to allow for new bonds.
Molecular structure elucidation by atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been demonstrated as a powerful method to gain insights into the structure and formation of matter.
