The melting of crystals is the process by which an increase in temperature induces the disruption of the ordered crystalline ...

Scientists at IMDEA Nanociencia are working on the development of materials whose properties can change as easily as we flip ...

Researchers at Osaka University have revealed a link between the equations describing strain caused by atomic dislocations in ...

-Sapphire glass has a large dispersion, which means that light of different wavelengths will experience significant ...

Right: OH-defects in young (0.3 Gyr) Variscan granites are one order of magnitude higher than in old (0.9-1.8 Gyr) Proterozoic granites from Scandinavia . The OH-content is reflected in recent ...

One way of creating a time crystal is to knock some of the carbon atoms out of the crystal lattice of diamond, creating what ...

Two twisted boron nitride layers (blue and pink) create a crystal lattice at a distance in which electrons (gold) can arrange themselves in a regular pattern. Credit: Natasha Kiper / ETH Zurich ...

Using a moiré material consisting of twisted atomic layers they created an artificial crystal lattice in a neighbouring material. Researchers have developed a method by which artificial crystal ...

Researchers have developed a method by which artificial crystal lattices with a large lattice constant can be created in a semiconductor material. The large lattice constant leads to a reduced ...
