In an international experiment, researchers observed Jahn–Teller polarons—quasiparticles that could play an important role in ...

Superconductors (materials that conduct electricity without resistance) have fascinated physicists for more than a century. While conventional superconductors are well understood, a new class of ...

The ODYSSEY Basic Crystal Lattices app is a great educational app that allows users to explore how atoms naturally pack together via interactive 3D models. The app includes many examples of six types ...

Lattice modes will be excited firstly when energetic materials are influenced by external stimuluses such as shock waves, impacts, heating, etc. And these excitations of lattice modes make energy of ...
