Protein crystallization inside living cells occurs naturally and serves roles such as storage, protection, solid-state catalysis, and, in some cases, arises from progression of disease or infection 1.

When a cell divides, it performs a feat of microscopic choreography—duplicating its DNA and depositing it into two new cells. The spindle is the machinery behind that process: It latches onto ...

Controlling the morphology of the active layer in organic solar cells (OSCs) is challenging. Now, acenaphthene is shown to induce the two-step crystallization of non-fullerene acceptors to achieve a ...

·Integrating perovskite solar cells onto irregular rough CuIn(Ga)Se 2 (CIGS) surfaces remains a challenge; new strategy was explored to develop monolithic perovskite/CIGS tandem solar cell by ...

A new kind of ‘camera’ is poking at the invisible world of the human body – and it’s made from the same weird crystals that once shook up solar energy. Researchers at Northwestern University and ...
