Strong interactions between neighboring metal and sulfur atoms are found to influence the properties of electronic excited states created by light absorption, as shown by X-ray spectroscopy methods at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource.

Excited Electronic States of Metallic Atoms Rely on their Sulfuric Neighbors

Scientists discover that bond covalency is an important property of excited states in molecules containing metal-sulfur bonds.

Crystallographic and spectroscopic evidence now show that americium and curium yield a variety of polyoxometalate compounds that their lanthanide counterparts are unable to form.

Heavy Ligands Unravel New Chemistry for Heavy Elements

Heavy ligands, like polyoxometalates, open a new frontier in the chemistry of actinide elements.
