It focuses on understanding structure-property relationships in materials using mathematical and graphical descriptions of structure, symmetry, and matter tensors in crystalline and noncrystalline ...

A QUESTION of fundamental importance in the theory of the solid state is the nature of ... but the possibility of a closer approximation to the crystalline state should not entirely be, ruled ...

Porous organic crystals with superior properties as CO2 adsorbents were created by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo.

Dislocations are one-dimensional defects that occur in real crystalline solids and control their plastic deformation. The presence of dislocations permits atomic planes to slip "one atomic row at a ...

the researchers created a crystalline solid out of 1a molecules, which are cyclic oligophenylenes with CO 2 H functional groups in the inner portion of their ring-like structure. When forming this ...

and uses chainmail-like design with entangled rings in place of fixed particles typically found in a crystalline structure. Because of its not-quite-liquid-not-quite-solid nature, PAMs are ...

Gas transport through a metal cluster-containing crystalline solid. Hydrogen and carbon monoxide travel at different speeds due to their molecular size relative to the size of nanoscale tunnels in the ...
