They demonstrated that the fields representing the strain generated around lattice dislocations in crystalline materials, ...

Researchers at Osaka University have revealed a link between the equations describing strain caused by atomic dislocations in ...

The melting of crystals is the process by which an increase in temperature induces the disruption of the ordered crystalline ...

Newly published research demonstrates a novel way of generating phonon-polaritons by making electrons collide with crystal lattice structures. The discovery paves the way for cheaper, smaller long ...

Zinc sulphide exists with two different crystal structures, the cubic zinc blend (top diagram) and the hexagonal Wurtzite (lower diagram). In the zinc blend structure the sulphur ions form an fcc ...

Controlling the arrangement of atomic vacancies offers a new way to adjust electronic, magnetic, thermal, and hydrogen ...
