Physicists have taken a gemstone better known for engagement rings and turned it into a laboratory for one of the strangest ...

Machine learning (ML) has emerged as a powerful tool for studying the properties of condensed matter. To date, most research has focused on the bulk properties of solids, however, defects are ...

Crystals are known far and wide for their beauty and elegance. But even though they may appear perfect on the outside, their microstructure can be quite complicated, making them difficult to model ...

A new hybrid layered perovskite featuring elusive spontaneous defect ordering has been found, report scientists. By introducing specific concentrations of thiocyanate ions into FAPbI3 (FA = ...

Perovskites are among the most extensively studied materials in modern materials science. Their often unique and exotic properties, which stem from perovskite’s peculiar crystal structure, could find ...
