(Nanowerk News) Photonic crystals are materials with repeating internal structures that interact with light in unique ways. We can find natural examples in opals and the vibrant coloured shells of ...
Electron microscope image of the aluminum alloy from the study. The light gray areas are sections of traditional crystals within the aluminum alloy, while the black dots are sections where NIST found ...
Andrew Iams, a materials research engineer at the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), saw something strange while looking through his electron microscope. He was examining a ...
