Nanomaterials with core-shell architectures are prominent examples of strain-engineered materials. The lattice mismatch between the core and shell materials can cause strong interface strain, which ...

The past three decades have witnessed the emergence of exotic structures and dynamics in weakly bound unstable nuclei located in the rapidly expanding nuclear chart. Examples include halo and cluster ...

A structure much like a liquid crystal allows the shell of a scarab beetle to circularly polarize light, scientists in the US have discovered. Mohan Srinivasarao of the Georgia Institute of Technology ...
