A setback in growing light-responsive crystals led UB chemist Jason Benedict and his team to a novel method for mapping ...

Minerals form the building blocks of almost everything on Earth. They are made up of crystals—regular, repeating atomic ...

From table salt to snowflakes, and from gemstones to diamonds—we encounter crystals everywhere in daily life, usually cubic ...

Every crystal’s shape is a mirror of the internal arrangement of their molecules, but the molecules in photoswitchable ...

A bill inspired by an illegal grand jury recording tied to the Crystal Rogers murder case was approved Wednesday.

During times of political turmoil, history often gets rewritten, erased, or lost. That is what happened to the legacy of Jan ...

Few things are more satisfying than watching a green pool return to crystal-clear water. This cleaning process shows the full transformation from algae-filled to swim-ready. It’s not just ...

A new study reveals how neatly ordered (hemi-) spherical or pancake like structures in nature can emerge from completely disordered salt solutions. Moreover, scientists can now harness these ...

We show how this "cosmic clock" uncovers the evolution of rivers, coasts and habitats.

Researchers from the labs of Professors Vinayak Dravid and Omar Farha developed a high-resolution approach to map ...
