A research team led by Jiang Zhizhong from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has found a honeycomb structure in localized regions at the top of ...

When it comes to the fundamentals of making better materials—stronger-but-thinner glass for televisions or phone screens, for example—it almost always comes down to the building blocks of science.

Elucidating the valence change mechanism in oxides memristors remains challenging due to subtle oxygen vacancy migration. Here, we quantify individual oxygen vacancies and observe their dynamic ...

There are many levels at which a scientific question can be answered. An answer that is quite satisfying to a scientist from one discipline may be totally unsatisfactory to a scientist from another.

For more than a quarter century, scientists have been trying to determine the structure of a particular form of solid oxygen. X-ray analysis of the substance under high pressure now indicates that ...
