By forcing crystal structures to compete, scientists uncovered a new way to make magnetism twist. Florida State University ...

Researchers have created a new class of materials called 'glassy gels' that are very hard and difficult to break despite containing more than 50% liquid. Coupled with the fact that glassy gels are ...

To build something fantastic, you need fantastic building blocks. Which is exactly what physicists are creating: new materials, with qualities undreamed of in our current world. Quantum materials ...

Imagine building a Lego tower with perfectly aligned blocks. Each block represents an atom in a tiny crystal, known as a quantum dot. Just like bumping the tower can shift the blocks and change its ...

In 2023, fossil fuels, including petroleum, natural gas, and coal, accounted for approximately 84% of the United States' primary energy production, as cited by the U.S. Energy Information ...

Chemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have successfully imaged the dynamic assembly of bilayer covalent organic frameworks (COFs) in solution, providing new insights into controlled ...

Stanford researchers have developed a flexible material that can quickly change its surface texture and colors, offering ...
