Scientists led by a physicist at the University of Oregon have taken a major step in solving an enduring mystery that we encounter every time we look through a window or stare at a phone screen.

Researchers have devised a mathematical approach to predict the structures of crystals -- a critical step in developing many medicines and electronic devices -- in a matter of hours using only a ...

UB chemist Jason Benedict and his team spent years developing photoswitchable crystals. Every crystal’s shape is a mirror of the internal arrangement of their molecules, but the molecules in ...
