Scientists applied a new X-ray-based reconstruction technique to observe, for the first time, topological defects in a nanoscale self-assembly-based cubic network structure of a polymer-metal composite material imaged over a relatively large sample volume.
A supercrystal formation previously unobserved in a metal-insulating material was discovered by a research team, potentially unlocking new ways to engineer materials and devices with tunable electronic properties.
New work for the first time reveals light emission patterns from 3D-printed nanowires, with potential for technological innovation in ultra-high resolution displays.
Researchers synthesize high-entropy liquid metal alloys at nanoscale, achieving atomic dispersion of noble metals and demonstrating enhanced catalytic activity for hydrogen evolution.
