[Chase]’s crystal-growing efforts have shown up here before, when he turned humble table salt into beautiful cubic crystals. We find the whole crystal-growing process fascinating, and we’re ...
Replacing organic solvents with molten salt enables researchers to create “previously unimaginable nanocrystals.” The type of ...
Polishing the crystals to make them optically cleaner would be a good next step, as would perhaps growing even larger crystals.
