Researchers have solved a mystery that has confounded scientists for 80 years: the crystal structure of the ...

Oregon State University pigment researchers are using a rare mineral discovered in Norway more than a century ago as a road ...

Model for predicting molecular crystal properties is readily adaptable to specific tasks, even with limited data ...

Cornell researchers have developed a two-phase liquid crystal system that can rapidly change—and hold—its shape, transforming ...

Crystal structures are common and familiar to us in substances such as salt, ice and sand. Scientists define them by their regular patterns and symmetry — the way the atoms and molecules are organized ...

Crystal structure prediction seeks to identify the stable or metastable crystal structures for any given chemical compound adopted under specific conditions. Traditionally, ...

Crystal structures in super slow motion Physicists succeed in filming a phase transition with extremely high spatial and temporal resolution Date: ...

The team describes the X-ray crystal structures of three synthetic nanobodies (sybodies) that bind to the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 ...

The percentage of oxide crystal structures that fulfill four of the five Pauling’s rules. Geoffroy Hautier’s team at the Catholic University of Louvain uses computational methods to design new ...

“Crystal Math” uses equations—and minimal resources—to rapidly predict the 3D structures of molecular crystals, which could speed up R&D for drugs and electronic devices. Researchers at New York ...

Crystal Structures Key to Steel’s Design Flexibility Feb. 7, 2023 Material engineers have mapped out the reasons some steels are better than others and how to make those better still.
