Crystals are known far and wide for their beauty and elegance. But even though they may appear perfect on the outside, their ...

N thin films with record-high scandium levels, with exciting potential for ultra-low-power memory devices, as reported by researchers from Institute of Science Tokyo (Science Tokyo). Using reactive ...

Titanium and bismuth chalcogenides exhibit a wide range of intriguing optical, electronic, and magnetic properties governed by their crystal structure and electronic configurations. These properties ...

Theoretical calculations demonstrate that the presence of ligands with different basicity modifies the Lewis acidity (expressed both as the LUMO energy and the enthalpy of coordination of a NH3 ...

The class of α+β titanium alloys are the most common in the various types of titanium alloys. Commercial Ti-6Al-4V is best known for having compact hexagonal crystal structure (alpha phase) and ...

In a nutshell Researchers developed copper-doped titanium dioxide nanofiber mats that float on water and use natural sunlight, not UV lamps, to break down pollutants. These “floating blankets” ...
