Researchers have devised a mathematical approach to predict the structures of crystals -- a critical step in developing many medicines and electronic devices -- in a matter of hours using only a ...
Chemists at the University of Iowa have created a three-dimensional lattice that captures water from the air and stores it.
The new method can determine crystal structures underlying experimental data thus far difficult to analyze. A joint research team led by Yuuki Kubo and Shiji Tsuneyuki of the University of Tokyo has ...
In 1982, materials scientist Dan Shechtman observed an unusual tenfold symmetry in an aluminum-manganese alloy, defying the ...
A research group conducted quantitative individual analysis on the contribution to the strength of the micrometer-scale crystallographic lamellar structures and nanometer-sized cellular structures ...
Phosphine ligands modify the structure of metal nanoclusters in a top-down evolutionary process by "peeling" and "etching.” This phosphine-LEIST reaction allows the construction of metal nanoclusters ...
An unusual crystal created by America’s first nuclear bomb test could help scientists understand a structure needed for ...
