Snowflakes are commonly considered delicate "winter beauties," but there is an interesting secret within the complexity of their designs. Their six-sided patterns predict weather, snowflakes are much ...

Molten carbon can form into either diamond or graphite. A new study shows how graphite can sometimes form even under conditions that should lead to diamond. (Getty Images) The graphite found in your ...

Lithium-ion batteries play a key part in the global transition to sustainable energy, from electric mobility to grid stabilization and portable devices. At the molecular level, their performance ...

Molten carbon can crystallize into diamond or graphite, but it has been difficult to study this process. New simulations show that graphite can sometimes "hijack" the pathway that would lead to ...
