The kite also only matches once, so the order is also 1. And the rhombus matches twice, so the order is 2. If a 2D shape can be folded in half, with either side of the fold being a mirror image of the ...

Scientists have observed that when the shape of a thin film of metal oxide known as titania is confined at the mesoscale, its conductivity increases. This finding demonstrates that nanoscale ...

With the goal of advancing biomimetic microscale materials, the research team has developed a new method to create microscale superstructures, called MicroSpine, that possess both soft and hard ...

A new kind of shape-shifting material can twist, bend, and snap into more than a dozen three-dimensional forms—no motors or ...
