The brilliantly shiny diamond is more than just pretty; it's one of the hardest minerals on Earth, with a name derived from the Greek word adámas, meaning unbreakable. Scientists have now engineered a ...

Scientists have discovered that a unique class of crystalline materials unexpectedly transforms during electrolysis, unlocking remarkable catalytic properties. This surprising behavior could play a ...

On compression of alpha-cristobalite SiO2 to pressures above approximately 12 GPa, a new polymorph known as cristobalite X-I forms. The existence of cristobalite X-I has been known for several decades ...

Instead of always forming building block by building block, scientists are learning that crystals can grow through more complex pathways. Credit: Shihao Zang/NYU Meet “Zangenite,” a hollow crystal ...

From the delicate patterns of snowflakes to the robust structure of diamonds, crystals are all around us. For a long time, scientists believed their growth followed a predictable path. But now, ...

Abstract: We have proposed and experimentally demonstrated a vector magnetic field sensor based on a magneto-sensitive functionalized three-core fiber (TCF) structure. The fiber-optic magnetic field ...
