Researchers at the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA published a step-by-step framework for determining the ...

It has been revealed that simply twisting and stacking two layers of oxide crystals can allow the atomic arrangement itself ...

A new computational framework maps 3D atomic positions in amorphous materials, achieving full accuracy for silica using ...

For many decades, the method to obtain atomic-level descriptions of chemical compounds and materials—be it a drug, a catalyst ...

Researchers from the Institute of Metal Research (IMR) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have stretched a chain of gold ...

Researchers have demonstrated that quantum entanglement can link atoms across space to improve measurement accuracy. By ...

Crystallography is the science of analyzing the pattern produced by shining an X-ray beam through a material sample. A powder sample produces a different pattern than solid crystal. One longstanding ...

Entangled atoms, separated in space, are giving scientists a powerful new way to measure the world with stunning precision.

For years, scientists noticed that magnetic fields could improve steel, but no one knew exactly why. New simulations reveal that magnetism changes how iron atoms behave, making it harder for carbon ...

Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory made a big leap in their research into all things small. Within the past few months, scientists there began using what they say is the world’s most ...
