A research team led by Professor Youngwook Kim from the Department of Physics and Chemistry, DGIST, in collaboration with the research team of Professor Gil Young Cho at KAIST, have discovered a new ...

As Japan fought with relentless resistance and casualties mounted across the Pacific, American leaders weighed terrible choices that could end the war with far fewer deaths; this documentary follows ...

Duplicates of crystal structures are flooding databases, implicating repositories hosting organic, inorganic, and computer-generated crystals. The issue raises questions about curation practices at ...

Stacks of graphene, carefully twisted, gain a superpower: They become superconductors. Now scientists have new evidence that this “magic-angle” graphene is a member of a truly strange class of ...

Water rolls on h-BN but encounters friction on graphene. Atomic structure and substrate shape nanoscale movement, guiding advances in coatings and anti-icing surfaces. Researchers found that this ...

“I’ll be shocked if we don’t see more and more LLM impact on science,” says John Jumper. In 2017, fresh off a PhD on theoretical chemistry, John Jumper heard rumors that Google DeepMind had moved on ...

A quick, purification-free method was developed by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo, to capture the detailed 3D structures of flexible sugar molecules. By growing crystals of galectin-10 ...

Researchers show electrical control of quantum interference in atomic spins on surfaces using a scanning tunnelling microscope and modulated bias fields. The system studied consists of a single atom ...

Cellular membrane proteins play many important roles throughout the body, including transporting substances in and out of the cell, transmitting signals, speeding up reactions and helping neighboring ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Since their discovery in 1982, exotic materials known as quasicrystals have bedeviled physicists and chemists. Their atoms arrange ...
