Scientists have confirmed the existence of a predicted room temperature superconductor, while explaining the microscopic ...

Single-crystal films of 10% La-doped hafnia kept intrinsic antiferroelectric order under compressive strain down to 0.6nm.

The study of twisted two-dimensional (2D) materials, in which twisting layers create moiré superlattices, has created ...

A three-dimensional porous carbon structure called 'diamondyne,' theoretically predicted 35 years ago, has been synthesized for the first time via a liquid-liquid interfacial reaction. Yet what ...

Explore crystal structure across five screens: the five 2D Bravais lattices, cubic unit cells and packing factors, hexagonal vs cubic close packing, Miller indices, and aperiodic order — Penrose ...

Solar technology has spent years chasing a difficult combination: higher efficiency without sacrificing durability. A new perovskite design could bring that challenge closer to resolution by changing ...

Today’s best atomic clocks, which track time by measuring the way electrons consistently jump between energy states when exposed to particular laser light, would lose less than one second of accuracy ...

Tata Group’s battery unit is gearing up to make cells using its own technology for the first time as China’s tighter curbs spur the Indian conglomerate to seek self-sufficiency, according to people ...

Scientists have built the first all-optical photonic time crystal, allowing them to reshape the behavior of terahertz light at extraordinary speeds. The breakthrough could open the door to ultrafast ...

Scientists have directly watched angular momentum move through a crystal for the very first time — and discovered a bizarre twist along the way. Using ultra-powerful terahertz laser pulses, ...
