Titanium silicate minerals encompass a diverse class of compounds in which titanium occupies coordination environments that can functionally substitute for silicon in the silicate framework. The ...

Bombarding a crystal with neutrons reveals a quantum quirk that frustrates heat transfer. The crystalline solid BaTiS 3 (barium titanium sulfide) is terrible at conducting heat, and it turns out that ...

Researchers have confirmed theoretically-predicted interactions between single oxygen molecules and crystalline titanium dioxide. The results could be of importance for a variety of applications. An ...

ACCORDING to the theory of Burton, Cabrera and Frank 1, crystals can only grow at supersaturations too low for two-dimensional nucleation, when dislocations are present. Where a screw dislocation ...
