'Breathing' crystals that release oxygen on demand could shape next-gen fuel cells | A new type of crystalline material comprising strontium, iron, and cobalt, can release oxygen on demand when heated – without breaking down
Motorola Buds Loop earbuds have Swarovski crystals and Bose sound
Why Microgravity Helps Crystals Grow Better
Smarter drug delivery system stores doses under your skin as crystals | Whether you have a deep-seated fear of needles (Trypanophobia) or simply aren't a fan of jabs, this drug delivery approach is good news
Scientists use crystals to cram terabytes of data into millimeter-sized memory | Crystal defects create ultra-dense memory
Researchers add a ‘twist’ to classical material design. They’ve discovered that crystals can twist when they are sandwiched between two substrates – a critical step toward exploring new material properties for electronics and other applications.
Revolutionary X-ray microscope unveils sound waves deep within crystals. Scientists developed a groundbreaking technology that allows them to see sound waves and microscopic defects inside crystals, promising insights that connect ultrafast atomic motion to large-scale macroscopic behaviors.
The co-founder of California-based startup Varda Space Industries says his company’s first space mission—a miniature lab that has grown crystals of the drug ritonavir in orbit—is on track to end in the coming weeks with a first-of-its-kind re-entry and landing in Utah.
