Pyrite is often dismissed as “fool’s gold” but this mineral creates some of the most stunning crystals in nature. Walk into ...

[Chase]’s crystal-growing efforts have shown up here before, when he turned humble table salt into beautiful cubic crystals. We find the whole crystal-growing process fascinating, and we’re ...

Researchers explore the transformation dynamics of cubic liquid crystals using direct simulation and machine learning, offering new possibilities for advanced materials development. Researchers ...

Silicon has the diamond cubic crystal structure with a lattice parameter of 0.543 nm. The nearest neighbor distance is 0.235 nm. The diamond cubic crystal structure has an fcc lattice with a basis of ...

The electronic configuration of Aluminum is (Ne)(3s) 2 (3p) 1, and it has an atomic radius of 0.143 nm. At room temperature Aluminum has the face-centered-cubic crystal structure with a basis of one ...

The second trip yielded several very large, perfect crystals—many approximately one cubic millimeter, fivefold larger than ...

But very few of them have been discovered. Theoreticians had predicted that isotopically pure cubic boron nitride (c-BN), should have extremely high thermal conductivity - second only to crystals made ...

A stunning rose gold plated bracelet with 925 sterling silver and sparkling cubic zirconia accents. A handcrafted rose ...

a specific type of liquid crystal characterized by its unique cubic symmetry. These blue phases form complex three-dimensional structures with distinctive properties, making them a subject of ...
