Here, we report the preparation of a fluorinated hydrocarbon two-dimensional polymer that can be exfoliated into single sheets, and its characterization by high-resolution single-crystal X-ray ...

In work led by Joan Redwing, director of the National Science Foundation-sponsored Two-Dimensional Crystal Consortium -- Materials Innovation Platform, and professor of materials science and ...

The discovery of chains of atoms in a two-dimensional crystal could help researchers control the properties of matter. By creating atomic chains in a two-dimensional crystal, researchers at Penn ...

The largest two-dimensional crystal of extremely cold, charged atoms ever created could be used to study poorly understood quantum materials, as well as for building quantum computers. Some ...

July 23 (UPI) --Physicists in Europe have managed send light through a two-dimensional crystal layer, a breakthrough that provides a semiconducting platform for quantum computing. In modern ...

They discover that the topological properties of quasicrystals come from periodic patterns in 4D, revolutionizing optics and ...

That's prompted researchers to look into other forms of what are called two-dimensional materials (at ... up closer together than they are in a crystal (the bond length was about 10 to 15 percent ...

When two-dimensional electron systems are subjected to magnetic fields at low temperatures, they can exhibit interesting states of matter, such as fractional quantum Hall liquids. These are exotic ...

A hidden quantum phase was exposed after a group of scientists used a set of spectroscopic equipment in a two-dimensional crystal. The researchers from MIT and the University of Texas witnessed ...
