Researchers have found that a novel metallic crystal displays unusual electronic behavior on its surface, thanks to the crystal's unique atomic structure. Their findings open up the possibility of ...
A lab accident in 1916 led to a breakthrough in crystal growth. Jan Czochralski's method for creating pure silicon crystals ...
The new method can determine crystal structures underlying experimental data thus far difficult to analyze. A joint research team led by Yuuki Kubo and Shiji Tsuneyuki of the University of Tokyo has ...
Metalworkers and metallurgists have long appreciated the ability to tailor the performance characteristics of steel (an alloy of iron and carbon), including their strength, hardness, ductility and ...
A chance discovery in a lab over a century ago by Jan Czochralski changed the world. His accidental observation of a metallic ...
