A team of researchers has reported the first laboratory synthesis and recovery of bulk hexagonal diamond, a crystal form long predicted to be harder than the conventional gems used in cutting tools ...

Diamonds are famous for their strength, but scientists have long suspected that another form of diamond might be even harder. Evidence of this was gathered over the past sixty years in meteorite ...

Engineering silicon carbide (SiC) with tailored morphologies for electronics and structural reinforcement materials has always been a costly and time-consuming affair, but scientists can now do it in ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. PARIS — Forget clutching your pearls. As the fall 2026 shows were underway in the City of Light, there was so much more up for ...

Researchers have systematically charted a superconducting dome in thin films of strontium-doped lanthanum nickelate, ...

David Roy Guay has led SBQuantum to space and beyond with its cutting-edge diamond magnetometers, advancing magnetic sensing ...

“These findings resolve the long-standing controversy on the existence of hexagonal diamond,” researchers said.

Here is why gallium nitride (GaN) is the natural successor to silicon MOSFETs in the 100–650 V class of power devices.

Most materials, especially metals and ceramics, are crystals. Their atoms are arranged in three-dimensional lattices that repeat the same exact pattern, over and over again. But there's a well-known ...

Phase change energy storage technology has great potential for enhancing the efficient conversion and storage of energy. While triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structures have shown promise in ...

Physicists hunting for new superconductors often look for a very specific shape hidden in ...
