Crystalline nanomaterials are valuable because their highly ordered structures give them useful properties for technologies ...

Under specific conditions, a liquid solution can form solid crystals, often due to environmental factors like temperature shifts, concentration changes, or air exposure. In life science OEM and ...

Scientists have successfully developed nanomaterials using a so-called bottom-up approach. They exploit the fact that crystals often grow in a specific direction during crystallization. These ...

Lateral crystallization of silicon thin films has emerged as a promising technique for the fabrication of state‐of‐the‐art transistor devices. This method promotes the growth of highly oriented ...

NYU scientists are using light to precisely control how tiny particles organize themselves into crystals. Their research, published in Chem, provides a simple and reversible method for forming ...

Going back through time, cultures around the world—from ancient Sumer to Indus Valley, China, and South America—have believed crystals could evoke a kind of sorcery, conjure change, and heal disease.
