For more than a century, schoolbook physics has divided matter into neat categories like solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. A ...

Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and crystallization are intertwined phenomena of considerable importance in both fundamental research and industrial applications, particularly in the ...

When ice melts into water, it happens quickly, with the transition from solid to liquid being immediate. However, very thin materials do not adhere to these rules. Instead, an unusual state between ...

Physicists are now watching matter behave in a way that defies everyday intuition, with atoms and even light itself arranging ...

Liquid-liquid phase separation is not a precursor to formation of amyloid fibrils, a pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease, shows study. Rather, the formation of protein into liquid droplets ...

High school science misses a lot of the science researchers actually work with. For example, you learn that there are three states of matter—solid, liquid, and gas—but in advanced physics, things get ...

Chemidroplet is a chemical tool, that fused the BTB-containing domain to the multivalent DNA binding domain (DBD) and intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) to readily control the LLPS of these ...

What is Liquid-Phase Exfoliation? Liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) is a versatile and scalable method for producing two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials from layered bulk crystals. It involves the use of ...
