Oxygen, of course, is a gas, polonium a metal, and the in-between elements, sulfur, selenium and tellurium, are all solids that show increasing metallic properties. In fact, tellurium (Te), which ...

A groundbreaking discovery by an international team of scientists has revealed room-temperature ferroelectric and resistive switching behaviors in single-element tellurium (Te) nanowires ...

tellurium, thallium, barium. What are they? And what are they used for? Minor metals merchant Anthony Lipmann explains how he made a fortune tracking down a stockpile of one toxic element ...

The atomic number of tellurium is 52 and the atomic number of iodine is 53, so these elements are in the correct order in the modern periodic table.

Ferroelectricity is commonly found in compounds, but single-element materials like tellurium (Te) rarely exhibit this property due to their symmetric atomic structures. However, Chen and his team ...

An international team of researchers has made a ground-breaking discovery that opens the door to developments in neuromorphic computing and ultrahigh-density data storage: room-temperature ...
