Crystal formation follows a two-step process: messy, shapeless clumps of particles, or amorphous blobs, first come together ...

Crystals—from sugar and table salt to snowflakes and diamonds—don't always grow in a straightforward way. New York University ...

The algorithm achieved world-leading performance in crystal structure prediction benchmarks. Crystal structure prediction seeks to identify the stable or metastable crystal structures for any ...

The achievement represents a major step forward, potentially unlocking innovations across numerous fields that rely on ...

Scientists at Columbia Engineering have created a machine learning algorithm that can observe the pattern produced by ...

Researchers explored a colloidal crystal model to produce specific polymorphs, required for use in materials science and pharmaceuticals.

Researchers have now captured this journey from amorphous blob to orderly structures. In exploring how crystals form, the researchers also came across an unusual, rod-shaped crystal that hadn't ...
