The focus of the study was a bulk single crystal of a topological kagome metal, known as CsV3Sb5—a metal that becomes superconducting below 2.5 degrees Kelvin, or minus 455 degrees Fahrenheit. The ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Atomic vacancies—sites where atoms are absent in a crystal lattice—have become a powerful tool for engineering material properties at the atomic scale. While the role of vacancies ...

Quasicrystals are like ordinary crystals but with a few key differences ... commercially available 3D-printed aluminum-zirconium alloy on the atomic scale. "In order to trust this new metal enough to ...

Quasicrystals are like ordinary crystals but ... alloy on the atomic scale. "In order to trust this new metal enough to use in critical components such as military aircraft parts, we need a ...

NIST researchers have found that non-repeating quasicrystals create defects in 3D printed aluminum that strengthen the metal.

This revolutionary technology, combined with expanded atomic theory, allows us to explore technology and our understanding of the universe. Time crystals exist only at the quantum scale because ...
