In a feat of chemistry imitating art, researchers have created a molecular version of a Borromean knot, an attractive pattern of three interlocking rings that commonly adorned Viking art and ...

A novel nanomaterial has emerged. Chemists at the University of Oregon have discovered a method to create carbon-based molecules with a distinct structural feature: interlocking rings. These ...

An interlocked ring pattern of virtual exotic particles called non-Abelian anyons — or nonabelions for short — has been created in a quantum computer for the first time. The particles’ paths form ...
