Tungsten oxide nanocrystals engineered with oxygen vacancies absorb near-infrared light and enhance photocatalytic breakdown of dye pollutants in water.

an atomistic model is a model of the collective behaviour of atoms in larger systems, such as molecules and crystals. The square-kagome lattice, a variant of the magnetically frustrated kagome ...

A groundbreaking thermal diffusivity microscope captures anisotropic heat flow in materials, enabling next-gen electronics, solar tech, and safer devices.

A team of researchers from TU Dortmund University, the University of Paderborn, and the University of Nottingham has ...

Meet “Zangenite,” a hollow crystal structure named in honor of the NYU graduate student who discovered it. Crystals, whether found in sugar, table salt, snowflakes, or diamonds, do not always grow in ...

Moiré patterns and flat bands usually occur in multilayer materials with a small interlayer twist angle, but this can cause detrimental lattice reconstruction. Now, flat bands are shown in a ...

Recently, molecular crystals exhibiting dynamic behavior in response to external stimuli have emerged as critical areas of ...
