The ice in your freezer is remarkably different from the single crystals that form in snow clouds, or even those formed on ...

For years, researchers have provided contradictory evidence about the “premelting film” of ice, its thickness and whether it ...

Scientists discover water that's solid and liquid. Superionic ice found in lab could explain Uranus and Neptune's bizarre ...

Scientists have crafted a visible form of a “time crystal,” a strange phase of matter that moves in endlessly repeating patterns when illuminated. Using liquid crystals similar to those in phone ...

Scientists at Rice University found a new way to make liquid crystals from boron nitride nanotubes. Instead of using acids or polymers to disperse the nanotubes, they used a common surfactant and ...

A time crystal is a form of matter that shows continuous, repeating patterns over time, much like how atoms in a normal crystal repeat in space. Examples once existed in only complex, quantum matter, ...
