This scale-agnostic property demonstrates the model's ability to bridge scales from nanoscale to microscale, enabling detailed atomic structure generation even at complex features like grain ...

Scientists use scanning tunneling microscopy to understand how a material's electronic or magnetic properties relate to its structure on the atomic scale. When using this technique, however, they can ...

The bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE), a photoelectric effect that generates photocurrent without a p–n junction, can persist ...

Sumio Iijima and Morinobu Endo are researchers who have advanced carbon nanotube research in Japan from different ...

For decades, relaxor ferroelectrics have powered everything from medical ultrasounds to sonar systems, yet their inner atomic structure remained a mystery—until now. Researchers have finally mapped ...

Atomic fluctuations sustain and enhance photocurrent in crystals previously thought too symmetric for this effect, revealing a potential route to more efficient solar cells.

Laser additive manufacturing can produce advanced parts, but the resulting metal microstructures are unpredictable for complex alloys, limiting reliability for critical applications. Metal 3D printing ...

A fully resourced, plug-and-play Atoms unit designed for the Pearson Edexcel GCSE Chemistry (9–1) specification. This complete unit contains everything needed to teach, practise, revise and assess ...

What is X-Ray Crystallography? X-ray crystallography is a powerful analytical technique used to determine the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials. It involves directing a beam of X ...
