Electron magnetic circular dichroism (EMCD) allows the quantitative, element-selective determination of spin and orbital magnetic moments, similar to its well-established X-ray counterpart, X-ray ...

When opting to use solar panels as a power source for your home or business, the choices tend to revolve around where to place them and how big they should be. But there's at least one more decision ...

Researchers have used artificial intelligence to solve a difficult problem in crystal science. Seeking to understand why crystals develop tiny defects called dislocations, the researchers discovered ...

Engineers at Northwestern University have developed a new thermoelectric material that may be the most efficient one yet. The new and improved polycrystalline form of purified tin selenide has all the ...

The elastoplastic response of polycrystalline metals and minerals above their brittleductile transition temperature is idealized here as rigid–perfectly plastic. Bounds on the overall plastic strength ...

US Synthetic Corporation, a leading provider of polycrystalline diamond cutters for oil and gas drilling, has chosen to ...
