Using hard X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, researchers revealed how oxygen vacancies and structural disorder influence subgap state formation. The figure shows the InGaZnO 4 crystal structure, the ...
Researchers at Università Cattolica, Brescia campus, have discovered that the transition from insulating to conductive behavior in certain materials is driven by topological defects in the structure.
Within a crystal's atomic structure, tiny atomic-scale flaws will naturally occur where electrons can become trapped. These defects have emerged as one of the leading platforms for quantum information ...
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 ...
On target A new method for precisely moving columns of individual atoms within a material could give rise to exotic quantum ...

New method creates nanoscale patterns on hard material at room temperature, can boost chip-making
A new technique is helping scientists create nanoscale patterns on chip materials at room ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) The petrochemical industry relies on separating chemicals that differ by just fractions of a nanometer in size. Methanol must be purified from similarly-sized molecules in the ...
A chance discovery in a lab over a century ago by Jan Czochralski changed the world. His accidental observation of a metallic thread revealed a crystal lattice structure. This breakthrough paved the ...
Insights into atomic-scale defects may enable next-generation thin-film transistors for smartphones, televisions, and flexible electronics. (Nanowerk News) Many displays found in smartphones and ...
