Light-induced symmetry changes in tiny crystals allow researchers to create materials with tailored properties
Imagine building a Lego tower with perfectly aligned blocks. Each block represents an atom in a tiny crystal, known as a quantum dot. Just like bumping the tower can shift the blocks and change its ...
Breakthrough allows researchers to create materials with tailored properties, unlocking unprecedented control over their optical and electronic properties. (Nanowerk News) Imagine building a Lego ...
Although the optically transparent single-crystal ZrO 2 form has a very high thermal shock resistance, it also has poor fracture toughness and strength. Zirconia is well-known among ceramics for being ...
