Conventional crystals are materials in which atoms arrange themselves in repeating spatial patterns. Time crystals, on the other hand, are phases of matter characterized by repeating motions over time ...

Twisting atomically thin magnetic layers does more than reshape their electronics—it can create giant, topological magnetic textures. In chromium triiodide, researchers observed skyrmion-like patterns ...

2D-XRD, or two-dimensional X-ray diffraction, is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials at the nanoscale. It provides detailed ...

A review in the Chinese Journal of Polymer Science ("Unconventional 2D Periodic Nanopatterns Based on Block Molecules") addresses these issues by leveraging the unique properties of block molecules, ...

A technical paper titled “A biological camera that captures and stores images directly into DNA” was published by researchers at National University of Singapore. “The increasing integration between ...

A University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa student-led team has developed a new algorithm to help scientists determine direction in complex two-dimensional (2D) data, with potential applications ranging from ...
