In exploring how crystals form, researchers at New York University came across an unusual, rod-shaped crystal that hadn’t been identified before.

Juan Casado Cordón, Professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Malaga, considers graphene—an infinite layer of carbon atoms—as one of the greatest discoveries of the last 20 years due to ...

Nature Communications - Carbynes are bulk linear chains of carbon atoms that can be stabilized inside carbon nanotubes. Here the authors show that while electronic states of tube and chain are...

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising candidate materials for applications that would benefit from precise chemical patterning, such as desalination, but many MOFs suffer from poor stability in water. In addition to water stability, high water uptake…

Researchers in the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a machine learning framework that can predict with quantum-level accuracy how materials respond ...

Researchers have created a new ultra-strong carbon called MAC, eight times stronger than graphene, opening the door to durable technologies.
