Chinese researchers have developed the country's first carbon-14 nuclear battery, marking a milestone in the research ...

Their device — a carbon-14 diamond battery — is a strange fusion of radioactive decay, synthetic diamonds, and plasma chemistry. The result is a power source that could outlive generations of ...

Carbon-14 is radioactive and is found in all living organisms. Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and animals eat plants. This means all living things have radioactive carbon-14 in them.

For the alternating spin chain model, the researchers used so-called Clar's goblets as their starting material, hourglass-shaped nanographene molecules consisting of eleven carbon rings.
