Superconductivity—the ability of a material to conduct electricity without any energy loss to heat—enables highly efficient, ...

Researchers have revisited a long-known material and uncovered a way to dramatically enhance its performance by altering its ...

When scientists study how materials behave under extreme conditions, they typically examine what happens under compression. But what occurs when you pull matter apart in all directions simultaneously?

Chemists have developed a generative AI model that can make it much easier to determine the structures of powdered crystal materials. The prediction model could help researchers characterize materials ...

Most solid materials we rely on, from steel, to plastics and ceramics, are designed to have specific properties. Whether a material is soft and flexible, or stiff and tough depends on how molecules ...

The ability to predict crystal structures is a key part of the design of new materials. New research shows that a mathematical algorithm can guarantee to predict the structure of any material just ...

An artificial intelligence created by Google DeepMind may help revolutionise materials science, providing new ways to make better batteries, solar panels, computer chips and many more vital ...

A-Lab on Thursday, April 6, 2023 at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, Calif. Researchers at Google DeepMind have used artificial intelligence to predict the structures of more than 2 ...
