83% Informative

Penn State researchers have found that they can tweak the atomic structure of lead-free potassium niobate to enhance its ferroelectric properties.

This opens up new possibilities for greener technologies, medical devices, and space exploration.

Researchers adjusted how successive layers are aligned to modify a material's properties by stretching or compressing the atoms that make up its crystal structure.
