1:05Now PlayingThree scientists on Wednesday won this year's Nobel Prize in chemistry for their work on metal organic frameworks that could help address pollution and climate change. Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson and Omar Yaghi are based in different countries, but added to each other's work on the new form of molecular architecture. The Prize Committee compared their discoveries to Hermione's magical handbag in the Harry Potter series as the constructions that may be small on the outside but contain enormous capacity inside. The three will share nearly $1.2 million in prize money.
