We studied the energetics and electronic structures of hexagonal boron nitrogen (h-BN) nanoflakes with hydrogenated edges and triangular shapes with respect to the edge atom species. Our calculations ...

A strange triangular formation in the Nevada desert is fueling speculation that it may be the work of a long-lost ancient civilization. Spotted on Google Earth, the structure is located in Battle ...

Asymmetric Janus transition metal dichalcogenide MoSSe is a promising catalytic material due to the intrinsic in-plane dipole of its opposite faces. The atomic description of the structures observed ...

A team at King’s College London has created a powerful new aluminum compound capable of doing the work of expensive rare metals. Its unique triangular structure gives it remarkable stability and ...

A new technical paper titled “Utilizing photonic band gap in triangular silicon carbide structures for efficient quantum nanophotonic hardware” was published by researchers at UC Davis. “Silicon ...

Researchers in Japan used computational simulations to show how urea and alcohol induce protein denaturation. Urea interacts with a protein’s main chains and induces coiling, while alcohol interacts ...
