As the clouds clear on computational crystal structure prediction, is the technique ready to empower mainstream materials research? James Mitchell Crow reports Importance and challenges: CSP is ...

Grenoble Alpes, CEA, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), INRA, Grenoble, France Tryptophan fluorescence anisotropy measurements of ceQORH were carried out in the same experimental ...

Unlocking the secrets of crystal structures is a crucial step in predicting the properties and applications of materials from their chemical compositions. Unfortunately, most current methods for ...

Chemeleon is a text-guided diffusion model designed for crystal structure generation. The tool allows users to explore and generate crystal structures either through natural language descriptions or ...

A crystal structure is composed of a unit cell, a set of atoms arranged in a particular way; which is periodically repeated in three dimensions on a lattice. For more information, see the ...

Krzysztof Szalewicz, an expert in molecular behavior, and graduate student Rahul Nikhar explained a promising new approach to predicting the structure of crystals that could reduce the cost and ...

and liquid crystal systems. Topological phases emerge in such chiral materials, wherein helical and vortex-like structures—called skyrmions—are observed. However, the role of elastic fields in these ...

"We found clear evidence at that time that it is a new ordered variant, but we were not able to elucidate the crystal structure,” explains study author Thomas Loerting. Thomas Loerting and his ...

This paper provides new quantitative and qualitative observations that make progress toward understanding the physical mechanisms behind the scintillation anisotropy. These measurements show that the ...
