Inside the Findings That Shaped Materials Science takes a closer look at some of those turning points - the ideas, lab ...

Water doesn’t behave the same way in a glass as it does as ice in your freezer. When water is heated to several thousand ...

During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical ...

Scientists suggest superionic “hot black ice” deep inside Neptune may explain its tilted, offset and chaotic magnetic field, ...

Wafer breakage is the most serious impact of killer crystalline defects. About 0.1 to 0.2% of silicon wafers break. The higher the number of wafer breakages, the slower the time to market. Given the ...

Inside the cores of ice giant planets, the pressure and temperature are so extreme that the water residing there transitions ...

There's something uniquely frustrating about the world of scientific discovery. We celebrate the names we know, the heroes ...

When last we saw [xoreaxeax], he had built a lens-less optical microscope that deduced the structure of a sample by recording ...

Charge density waves (CDWs) are ordered, crystal-like patterns in the arrangement of electrons that spontaneously form inside ...

A battery electrolyte that is solid at normal temperatures yet still conducts ions could make lithium batteries safer and longer lasting by replacing flammable liquids.
