This is known as the Verwey transition, and it changes magnetite’s electronic and structural properties significantly. With its complex interplay of crystal structure, charge, and orbital orders, ...

Physics Bizarre crystal made only of electrons revealed in astonishing detail. To capture the clearest and most direct images of a “Wigner crystal”, a structure made entirely of electrons ...

We know of around 48,000 inorganic crystal structures, which provide materials with a range of properties. Now, an AI created by Google DeepMind has predicted over 2 million more possibilities ...

NYU researchers discovered a new crystal—a rod-shaped, hollow, low-density structure, shown here in experiments and simulations—naming it "Zangenite" for the NYU graduate student who found it.
