The following table lists representative single-crystal materials we have synthesized using flux, floating-zone or electrochemical technique. We have provided single-crystal samples to more than 60 ...

SINGLE-CRYSTAL graphite demonstrates a very high degree of anisotropy between the properties obtained in directions parallel and normal to the basal plane. This has generated a great deal of ...

A new battery lasts 20,000 cycles, resists wear, and could outlive cars. What does this mean for EVs and energy storage? Find ...

Advancements in perovskite crystals enhance X-ray detection, improving medical imaging and radiation sensing with lead-free ...

Electric vehicle manufacturers are using the Canadian Light Source (CLS) synchrotron in Saskatoon to develop batteries with a lifespan pushing eight million kilometres, roughly 25 times the average ...

Scientist Toby Bond says a new type of lithium-ion battery material called a single-crystal electrode can last decades, and be used in “second-life applications” such as storing wind and solar energy ...
