Current generation via quantum proton transfer

Researchers have discovered that proton transfer in electrochemical reactions is governed by the quantum tunneling effect under the specific conditions. In addition, they made a first ever observation of the transition between the quantum and classical regimes in electrochemical proton transfer by controlling potential.

What atoms do when liquids and gases meet

Until now, it was thought that the atoms in these regions behaved as if they were in a 'drum skin', based on the assumption that the surface tension between the two elements caused the water to be drawn taut like a drum and to act as such when disturbed. Although this is correct on larger scales, the assumption fails on smaller scales.
