After conceiving a new model, the lead authors, Yuuki Kubo and Shiji Tsuneyuki, confirmed its proficiency by applying it to ...

Advancements in perovskite crystals enhance X-ray detection, improving medical imaging and radiation sensing with lead-free ...

"The crystal structures of the real world are extremely diverse. They are one of nature's deepest mysteries," says Kubo, the first author of the paper. "We thought that, in a way, we could get a ...

What do you get when you combine a team of scientists, a jet of crystals, a giant laser beam firing X-rays, a synchrotron ...

Abstract: This paper presents a coupled-wave analysis of triangular-lattice photonic crystal surface emitting lasers (PCSELs) with transverse magnetic polarization. Six plane waves coupled by Bragg ...

powders that contain more than one type of crystal structures. The method can predict the structure directly from powder X-ray diffraction patterns, the patterns of X-rays passing through crystals ...

“Crystal meth” is a street name for the drug methamphetamine, a powerful stimulant that carries a high risk of physical dependence. Although methamphetamine has medical purposes, people use ...

Water splitting—breaking water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen—is a promising pathway to sustainable energy. However, this ...

Crystal- and electronic-structure chirality of RhSi, RhSn and RhBiS. a, Illustration of the intrinsically chiral structure. Handedness can be distinguished by considering the helix formed by Rh atoms.

By experimentally making a quantum computer behave like a robust form of time crystal, a team of physicists from China and the US hope to make the technology less prone to errors as it scales. Time ...
