Graphene nanoparticles - a new type of amorphous solid bodies

Amorphous forms of solid carbon do not have a fixed crystal structure and consist of structural units - nanosized graphene particles. A team of physicists studied the structure of amorphous carbon and suggested classifying it as a separate type of amorphous solid bodies: a molecular amorphic with enforced fragmentation.

New glue sticks easily, holds strongly, and is a gas to pull apart

Scientists have discovered a class of molecular materials that can be used to make temporary adhesives that don't require force for removal. These non-permanent glues won't be available as home or office supplies, but they can lead to new manufacturing techniques and pharmaceutical design.

Laser-driven 'chirp' powers high-resolution materials imaging

Scientists can use beams of electrons to study the properties of materials. For example, they can learn about the behavior of subatomic particles and molecular or atomic structure of a material. Shorter electron beams produce higher-resolution views of these properties.

How to store cipher data in magnetic skyrmions

Scientists propose direct magnetic writing of skyrmions, i.e. magnetic quasiparticles, and skyrmion lattices, within which it is possible to encode, transmit, process information, and produce topological patterns with a resolution of less than 100 nanometers.
