RECENTLY, with the increase of the resolving power of the electron microscope, it has become possible to make a direct observation of a crystal lattice composed of large molecules. J. W.

The crystal lattice parameter is 0.563 nm. The diagram shows both a unit cell with ion locations indicated (a) and a space filling model (b) of ionic hard spheres. The cohesive energy of NaCl is - ...

it determines the size and shape of the lattice “box” and which atoms will go into it. Then, it predicts the arrangement of atoms within the box. For each diffraction pattern, the model ...

Dan Shechtman of the Technion–Israel Institute of Technology made the discovery that would later earn him the 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry: the quasiperiodic crystal. According to diffraction ...

Xiong Yimin from Anhui University, the researchers discovered a new lattice-modulated magnetic array in the binary kagome Fe ...

Their findings, published in the journal “Science Advances,” described a lattice arrangement of three different layers of ferroelectric crystals (in this case, of barium titanate, strontium ...

Hot material The crystal structure of cordierite gives the material ... Dove and Li used advanced molecular dynamics simulations to accurately model the behaviour of atoms in the cordierite lattice.
