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

Atomic scale copper rich layers inside rare earth magnets suppress demagnetization, improving strength, stability, and ...

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 ...

Electron diffraction is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic structure of materials. It involves the interaction of a beam of electrons with a crystalline sample, resulting in a ...

Together with an international team, researchers from the Molecular Physics Department at the Fritz Haber Institute have ...

Next-generation technology requires next-generation materials that can be tailored to exact mission requirements. Additive ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers from Nagoya University in Japan employed atomic-resolution secondary electron (SE) imaging to examine the atomic structure of the topmost layer of materials, uncovering differences from ...
