Amorphous materials such as glass are solids whose internal structure lacks a repeating pattern. Their molecules are arranged ...

Researchers uncovered how soft regions in amorphous silicon mix order and disorder, offering new insights for designing stronger amorphous materials. Persistence diagram obtained from the structure of ...

Scientists at EPFL and AstraZeneca have developed a method to map the atomic-level structure of amorphous drugs, demonstrated on a GLP-1 receptor agonist candidate for diabetes and obesity treatment.

For a long time, it was thought that amorphous solids do not selectively absorb light because of their disordered atomic structure. A new study disproves this theory and shows that amorphous solids ...

Persistence diagram obtained from the structure of amorphous silicon, examples of the local ring structures corresponding to each point in the diagram, and representative structures including atoms ...

A research team led by Prof. YAO Hongbin from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), in collaboration with Prof. SHANG Cheng from Fudan University and Prof. TAO Xinyong at Zhejiang ...

The image shows an atomic-scale visualization of monolayer amorphous carbon's structure, displaying a network of irregularly arranged carbon atoms (shown by the red lattice lines) with varying bond ...
