For the first time in the world, an Osaka Metropolitan University team has developed a crystal patterning method ...

The discovery of this new crystal growth and orientation control method in solid-state was recently published in the journal Acta Materialia. The research paper focuses on growing large single ...

To complicate matters further, because the molecules that make up the crystal are arranged in a helix, the color can change depending on the viewer's orientation to the helix. Therefore ...

Laue diffraction is an extremely valuable tool for investigating the structure and orientation of a single-crystal material. This method can be used to quantify how much a crystal’s actual growth ...

By knowing exactly how this orientation is on the membrane, we determined the funneling property in a more precise way." The trimeric protein — the taco shell protein — has a symmetry axis ...
