Understanding the make-up of crystalline structures is a vital aspect of the characterisation of new compounds, and can be regarded as an important first step towards the possibility of tailoring ...

"Our work shows that the sandwich thin films by co-designing nanocrystal-dispersed amorphous and fully-crystallized phase structures can become a generally effective pathway to enhance the energy ...

A recent study published in Scientific Reports outlined a breakthrough in the chemical conversion of kaolinite, a two-dimensional (2D) material, into a three-dimensional (3D) amorphous structure.
