For many decades, the method to obtain atomic-level descriptions of chemical compounds and materials—be it a drug, a catalyst ...
Researchers at the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA published a step-by-step framework for determining the ...
Next-generation technology requires next-generation materials that can be tailored to exact mission requirements. Additive ...
When materials become just one atom thick, melting no longer follows the familiar rules. Instead of jumping straight from solid to liquid, an unusual in-between state emerges, where atomic positions ...
Together with an international team, researchers from the Molecular Physics Department at the Fritz Haber Institute have revealed how atoms rearrange themselves before releasing low-energy electrons ...
Delivering a lecture in 1959, theoretical physicist, Richard Feynman, wondered out loud: “What would the properties of materials be if we could really arrange the atoms the way we want them?” The ...
