The mechanical strength and toughness of engineering materials are often mutually exclusive, posing challenges for material design and selection. To address this, a research team from The Hong Kong ...

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors, materials that can conduct electricity and are only a few atoms thick, are promising ...

Electron–phonon interactions in a material have been modelled by combining billions of Feynman diagrams. Using a modified form of the Monte Carlo method, Marco Bernardi and colleagues at the ...

"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics.

A clever method from Caltech researchers now makes it possible to unravel complex electron-lattice interactions, potentially ...

To further reduce the size of electronic devices, while also improving their performance and energy efficiency, electronics ...

Finding new materials with useful properties is a primary goal for materials scientists, and it's central to improving technology. One exciting area of current research is 2D materials—super-thin ...

Wood, vinyl, and metal lattice has become an extremely popular landscaping and interior design building product in the past decade. There are many uses for lattice including decorative interior ...

This was until now, when the team at Forschungszentrum Jülich engineered a 2D half metal in the form of an ultrathin alloy of iron and palladium, just two atoms thick, on a palladium crystal.

A 61-year-old man who was critically injured after being pulled into an MRI machine on Long Island has died. The incident happened around 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 16, at Nassau Open MRI on Old ...

Phase diagram showing the different properties of pyrochlore at different temperatures. In green is the spin liquid phase described in 2020; in yellow, the mystery phase that the researchers were ...
