Researchers have developed a new machine-learning model for discovering magnetic materials that are free of critical elements.

Researchers used kirigami, the Japanese art of folding and cutting paper, to develop ultrastrong, lightweight materials.

Researchers have confirmed that the 'seed' particles used to grow gold nanoparticles are actually 32-atom spherical molecules known as gold buckyballs.

new family of low density TiMgLi-based compositionally complex alloys promise hydrogen storage at room temperature

For the first time, researchers have shown that it’s possible to reproduce brain-like, non-local behavior in a quantum material.

Researchers have shown that magnetic moments in non-collinear antiferromagnets will respond differently to magnetic fields and electric currents.

Scrambling electron spins in a layered antiferromagnet with a light pulse leads to an ultrafast mechanical response across the entire sample.

Researchers have discovered that, in the absence of corrosion, lithium forms a 12-sided figure known as a rhombic dodecahedron on electrode surfaces.
