Scientists have taken a step closer to replicating nature's processes of self-assembly. The study describes the synthetic construction of a tiny, self-assembled crystal known as a 'pyrochlore,' which ...

Self-assembly of simple subunits into multi-subunit structures with increased complexity and functionality underlies many biological processes and is becoming an important route to bottom-up materials ...

Physicists show that the shape of components is a major determinant of how quickly and efficiently complex structures self-assemble. Physicists at LMU Munich show that the shape of components is a ...

In early 2023, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory used autonomous methods can discover new materials. The artificial intelligence (AI)-driven technique ...

A rapid condensation process creates uniform porous oxides with conductive nanomaterials, boosting lithium storage performance while enabling full solvent recovery and sustainable material production.

Ten years ago, when the industry was struggling to deliver EUV lithography, directed self-assembly (DSA) roared to the forefront of research and development for virtually every manufacturer determined ...
