Multiferroic metals are materials that exhibit both electric polarization and magnetic order in the same crystal—a state ...

2D-XRD, or two-dimensional X-ray diffraction, is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials at the nanoscale. It provides detailed ...

One of the great successes of 20th-century physics was the quantum mechanical description of solids. This allowed scientists to understand for the first time how and why certain materials conduct ...

Nanostructured two-dimensional gold monolayers offer possibilities in catalysis, electronics, and nanotechnology. Nanostructured two-dimensional gold monolayers offer possibilities in catalysis, ...

Engineers have developed a record-setting nanomaterial which when stretched in one direction, expands perpendicular to the applied force. It is a common hack to stretch a balloon out to make it easier ...

Traditional semiconductors such as Si, GaAs, and HgCdTe seem unable to meet the development trend of electronic devices that feature ultra-small volume, light weight, and low power consumption. These ...
