A team of physicists, materials scientists and engineers affiliated with several institutions in China, working with a colleague from Umeå University, in Sweden, has grown a diamond that is harder ...

Researchers have synthesized millimetre-scale hexagonal diamond, a crystal structure so elusive that many physicists doubted ...

A collaborative group of researchers has potentially developed a means of controlling spin waves by creating a hexagonal pattern of copper disks on a magnetic insulator. The breakthrough is expected ...

Researchers made small, pure samples of the elusive mineral lonsdaleite – also known as hexagonal diamond — and tested its ...

Chemists at Boston College and Nagoya University in Japan have synthesized the first example of a new form of carbon, the team reports in the most recent online edition of the journal Nature Chemistry ...

An illustration of the two-dimensional magnonic crystal developed in this study, viewed from an oblique angle. Copper disks are periodically arranged on a magnetic garnet film. A collaborative group ...
