A team of researchers has developed a novel method for using cholesteric liquid crystals in optical microcavities. The ...

A new method in electron microscopy enables sub-20-picometer targeting of individual atoms without prior exposure, opening ...

Crystal Structures Key to Steel’s Design Flexibility Feb. 7, 2023 Material engineers have mapped out the reasons some steels are better than others and how to make those better still.

New work could help in the development of materials that host exotic coherent quantum states under ambient conditions ...

For more than 100 years, scientists have been using X-ray crystallography to determine the structure of crystalline materials such as metals, rocks, and ceramics.

Ph.D. candidate Keegan Walkup, left, and physicist Patrick Huber work in the new lab that Huber is establishing to look for evidence of dark matter traces inside the crystal lattice structures of ...

They used several types of microscopy to probe the crystal lattice structure of the alloy under force. It turns out, CrCoNi gets its cool toughness through a series of atomic interactions that ...

Crystals are characterized by their highly ordered atomic arrangements, forming as repeated units in what’s known as a crystal lattice, creating those pointy faceted protrusions we humans love ...

For more than 100 years, scientists have been using X-ray crystallography to determine the structure of crystalline materials such as metals, rocks, and ceramics. This technique works best when the ...
