Scientists are investigating how structures made from several layers of graphene stack up in terms of their fundamental physics and their potential as reconfigurable semiconductors for advanced ...

Researchers have revealed new insights into rhombohedral stacking in graphene, reporting on how it behaves as a semiconductor ...

The crystal structure of bismuth is noteworthy. Unlike many metals, which crystallize in a cubic structure, bismuth forms rhombohedral crystals. This means that the crystal lattice is skewed ...

According to his observations mellitic acid is dimorphic: rhombohedral when crystallized from aqueous solution at room temperature, and of an unidentified lower symmetry class when separated from ...

It features columnar π arrays with an interlayer spacing of 3.59 angstroms (Å) and rhombohedral lattices, a specific type of crystal structure formed by interwoven polyaniline chains.

Ferromagnetism is a form of magnetic ordering in which the intrinsic magnetic dipole moment, or spin, of electrons on each crystal-lattice ... nano-lamellar structures via thermo-magnetic processing.

Pencil lead, or graphite, is composed of graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in hexagons resembling a honeycomb structure. Rhombohedral pentalayer graphene is composed of five layers ...

University of Texas at Dallas scientists are investigating how structures made from several ... orders that occur in graphite, which is a crystal found in pencil lead,” Xu said.
