The controlled growth of metastable materials has been plagued by the competition of thermodynamically stable structures 1. Single-crystal metal foil with high-index facets has emerged as a promising ...

Methods to grow large crystals provide the foundation for material science and technology. Here we demonstrate single crystal homoepitaxy of a metal-organic framework (MOF) built of zinc, acetate and ...

Scientists have determined the structure of a new material with the potential to be used in solar energy, batteries, and splitting water to produce hydrogen. The physical properties and crystal ...

Researchers have devised a mathematical approach to predict the structures of crystals -- a critical step in developing many medicines and electronic devices -- in a matter of hours using only a ...

A research team from the Institute of Statistical Mathematics and Panasonic Holdings Corporation has developed a machine learning algorithm, ShotgunCSP, that enables fast and accurate prediction of ...

A research group conducted quantitative individual analysis on the contribution to the strength of the micrometer-scale crystallographic lamellar structures and nanometer-sized cellular structures ...
