STOCKHOLM – Two researchers from the United States and one in Britain have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

The nine-million-kronor (US$1.01 million) chemistry prize is the last of this year’s scientific Nobel Prizes.

Last year’s prize went to researchers in the U.S., Switzerland and Britain, who developed a microscope technique that lets scientists see details of the molecules that drive life.

Scientists from Canada, the U.S. and France shared the physics prize Tuesday for their work with lasers.
