The inherent atomic packing modes of glassy solids remain one of the most interesting and fundamental problems in condensed-matter physics and materials science 1,2. Although significant progress has ...

image: The introduction of light atomic species (e.g., H, B, C, and N) into noble metal lattices plays an important role in optimizing catalytic performance by modulating structural and electronic ...

High-strength, lightweight metal lattice materials are being developed by Boeing. SOURCE: Architected Materials. So this involves three stories which were all on the Engineering Materials website, and ...

Imagine if there were a metallic device that could be transported all squished down into a compact ball, but that would automatically "bloom" out into its useful form when heated. Well, that may soon ...

Researchers have developed 'the first liquid metal lattice in the world.' The team has created a series of prototypes that return to their shapes when crushed. Pu Zhang likes to compare his team's ...

Scientists have made an important advancement in understanding a classic transition-metal oxide, vanadium dioxide, by quantifying the thermodynamic forces driving the transformation. For more than 50 ...
