X-ray diffraction methods lie at the foundation of materials science. Determination of the crystal structures of natural minerals and, later, of crystals grown in the laboratory led to our ...

Accelerated aging tests reveal spatially non-uniform degradation in perovskite solar cells, enhancing understanding of stability and performance under stress.

Since the 1980s, researchers have sought to use laser light to control chemical reactions relevant to photochemistry, ...

When viruses travel through the air in tiny droplets, they can quickly start to dry out. Yet many viruses remain infectious after rehydration—something that is still not fully understood. Now, an ...

The world’s rarest mineral does not look especially imposing at first glance. It is a faceted orange gem, just 1.

The James Webb Space Telescope has resolved the dusty core of the Circinus galaxy with a level of detail no previous ...

Japan’s Hayabusa2 spacecraft, already famous for returning samples from asteroid Ryugu, is less than three months from its ...

Anton Paar is bringing smart automation to particle characterisation with new enhancements to the Litesizer series of ...

Flexible, and easy-to-use Python diffraction simulator that focuses on visualizing physical optics phenomena. The simulator uses mainly scalar diffraction techniques for light propagation, provides a ...
