Researchers have developed a novel way for liquid crystals to retain information about their movement. Using this method could advance technologies like memory devices and sensors, as well as pave the ...

Magnonic crystals are artificial periodic structures designed to control and manipulate the propagation of spin waves, also known as magnons. These crystals are the magnetic analogs of photonic ...

Just when scientists thought they knew everything about crystals, a Northwestern University and University of Wisconsin-Madison collaboration has uncovered a hidden secret. Centrosymmetric crystals ...

Restless nights stealing your sleep? Skip the sheep and reach for something a little more luminous. Just as a warm mug of chamomile or a soft lullaby can ease you toward dreamland, certain crystals ...
