For a long time, scientists associated crystal structures with an ordered arrangement of atoms in a repeating lattice-like pattern, believing it to be the most stable configuration. However, by the ...

The decomposition of topological lattices is crucial for understanding their evolution and behavior in complex systems. Typically, decomposed substructures retain the primary lattice’s topology.

A new study from Swansea University has introduced a framework to calculate the material properties of a new class of two-dimensional curved hexagonal lattices that could be used in the production of ...

The dielectric properties of disordered crystalline materials are governed by long-range orientational correlations arising from local structural disorder. We present a statistical and topological ...
