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 ...

In one dramatic example of the necessity of predicting crystal structures, scientists in the late 1990s discovered that capsules of the HIV drug ritonavir later transformed from the known crystal ...

The research, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences , demonstrates the first experimental platform for studying how crystal structures respond when systematically and ...

The lenses, which use two layers of liquid crystal structures, could be useful for various applications such as optical interconnections, biological imaging, augmented/virtual reality devices and ...

Key Laboratory of Polar Materials and Devices and Physics Department, East China Normal University, Shanghai 200241, People’s Republic of China Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text ...

Table 1 shows the crystal structures, cohesive energies, melting points and bulk moduli of the 3d, 4d and 5d transition metals series. The bulk modulus determines the resistance of the metal to ...

The plates consist of alternating layers of face-centered cubic (FCC) crystal structures that average approximately 150 nanometers thick and body-centered cubic (BCC) crystal structures that average ...

The ability to predict crystal structures is a key part of the design of new materials. New research shows that a mathematical algorithm can guarantee to predict the structure of any material just ...

The other way is to alter its crystal structure ... face-centered cubic (FCC) structure—the gamma phase, or austenite—at high temperatures to a body-centered cubic (BCC) structure—alpha ...

An explicit FCC–BCC phase transition is observed at 156 GPa, resembling the experimental value. Locally disordered structures induced by shock wave are resolved as opposed to a perfect crystal, which ...
