Natural diamond, seen here, has a cubic packing structure. But a much rarer form of diamond has hexagonal packing and has now ...

How molten carbon crystallizes into either graphite or diamond is relevant to planetary science, materials manufacturing and nuclear fusion research. A new study uses computer simulations to study how ...

Check out the Crystal of Atlan x One-Punch Man crossover trailer as the iconic anime gets a collaboration with the MMO action RPG. The new Crystal of Atlan trailer shows One-Punch Man characters ...

Experiments at BESSY II show that during electrolysis, the structure breaks down into ultrathin nickel sheets, exposing the active catalytic centers to the electrolyte. Hydrogen can be produced ...

Here, we solve the first crystal structure of FSP1 in complex with an FSP1 inhibitor (FSEN1). Our findings reveal the mechanism of FSEN1 inhibition of FSP1 and uncover the reason for FSEN1 species ...

Meet “Zangenite,” a hollow crystal structure named in honor of the NYU graduate student who discovered it. Crystals, whether found in sugar, table salt, snowflakes, or diamonds, do not always grow in ...

NYU unlocks secret behind hollow crystal formation through two-step self-assembly For a long time, scientists believed their growth followed a predictable path.

100-year-old crystal mystery cracked by US scientists; could unlock next-gen batteries When only tiny, imperfect nanocrystals are available, crystallography falls short, leaving the structure of ...

NYU researchers discovered a new crystal—a rod-shaped, hollow, low-density structure, shown here in experiments and simulations—naming it "Zangenite" for the NYU graduate student who found it.

The structure of graphite supplies a steady system for lithium storage. Throughout charging, lithium ions travel from the cathode via the electrolyte to the graphite anode where they place themselves ...

The crystal structures of the CCPs were analyzed using single-crystal X-ray diffraction with a Rigaku R-AXIS RAPID diffractometer, employing Mo Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å) and a graphite ...
