Using finely tuned nanoscale building blocks, researchers from Brown University and the University of Michigan College of ...
BUFFALO, N.Y. — University at Buffalo chemist Jason Benedict and his team spent years developing photoswitchable crystals. Every crystal’s shape is a mirror of the internal arrangement of their ...
A silver nanoparticle smaller than a virus, carved into a 14-faced geometric shape, has allowed researchers to freeze a phase ...
Crystal polymorphism is critically important in the fields of pharmaceuticals and materials science. For instance, a metastable polymorph of an active pharmaceutical ingredient may benefit from ...
In a study published in Science, researchers used silver nanoparticles to assemble a theorized, but never-before observed crystal metallic structure.
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 ...
(Philipp Tur/iStock/Getty Images Plus) Right on the brink of black hole formation, spacetime can get downright peculiar. This ...
Microscopic black holes have long hovered at the edge of theory, forming only in exquisitely balanced states. Now physicists ...
Duplicates of crystal structures are flooding databases, implicating repositories hosting organic, inorganic, and computer-generated crystals. The issue raises questions about curation practices at ...
UB chemist Jason Benedict and his team spent years developing photoswitchable crystals. Every crystal’s shape is a mirror of the internal arrangement of their molecules, but the molecules in ...
