In van der Waals layered structures, when two adjacent layers have small lattice mismatch and nearly aligned crystalline directions, the interlayer atomic registry will vary periodically on a length ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at The University of Manchester have uncovered interesting phenomena when multiple two-dimensional materials are combined into van der Waals heterostructures (layered ...

When two very similar grids with light and dark elements overlap, new sinuous patterns emerge that seem to shimmer and flow. Whether you’re into art or science, engineering or fashion, you have ...

In recent years, heat has stopped being just a number on a thermometer and has become something we can literally see at the atomic scale. In 2025, an ...

“We’re blowing the dust off moire,” says Raffaele Fabrizio, creative director of Dedar, while showing off the Italian fabric house’s latest collection, which expands the maker’s Amoir Libre in rich ...

The ability to create intricate, nano-scale patterns is at the heart of nanotechnology, and lithography techniques are the tools that make this possible. From photolithography to FIB, each technique ...

The development of nanoelectronics has enabled operations at the nanoscale, resulting in the creation of smaller and more efficient electronic devices. Here, we offer a comprehensive summary of the ...
