Electron diffraction is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic structure of materials. It involves the interaction of a beam of electrons with a crystalline sample, resulting in a ...

Relativistic atomic structure and spectroscopy address the complex interplay of quantum mechanics and Einstein’s theory of relativity to describe the behaviour of electrons in atoms, particularly ...

For many decades, the method to obtain atomic-level descriptions of chemical compounds and materials—be it a drug, a catalyst ...

Matlantis CSP has already produced early results across multiple systems—oxides, alloys, and phosphides—discovering more than 10 previously unknown stable crystals. In the Ga–Au–Ca system, it ...

A new computational framework maps 3D atomic positions in amorphous materials, achieving full accuracy for silica using ...

Condensed-matter physics and materials science have a silo problem. Although researchers in these fields have access to vast amounts of data – from experimental records of crystal structures and ...

Researchers at the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA published a step-by-step framework for determining the ...

It has been revealed that simply twisting and stacking two layers of oxide crystals can allow the atomic arrangement itself ...

The new method can determine crystal structures underlying experimental data thus far difficult to analyze. A joint research team led by Yuuki Kubo and Shiji Tsuneyuki of the University of Tokyo has ...
