On a Saturday afternoon in the fall of 2021, Silvio Decurtins was leafing through a paper with a title that could have been pulled from a comic book for mathematically inclined teens: “Plato’s Cube ...

Various surface/interfacial micro/nanostructures have been widely used in solar cells 1,2,3,4, light emitting diodes 5, surface wetting and adhesion 6,7,8, metamaterials 9,10,11,12, cell biophysics 13 ...

Twist a stack of atom-thin carbon sheets by just the right amount and the material stops behaving like ordinary metal or ...

2D-XRD, or two-dimensional X-ray diffraction, is a powerful analytical technique used to study the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials at the nanoscale. It provides detailed ...

Optics meets 2D materials: a simple probe light beam exiting an optical moiré lattice can be chopped up into diffuse streaks or confined into a single bright spot, depending on the twist angle in the ...
