Android and iOS have both received visual overhauls in 2025. Android 16’s QPR1 update brought the Material 3 Expressive style to Pixel phones, while iOS 26 offered the Liquid Glass aesthetic.

You might think that glass has no business acting as a replacement for bone, but it turns out the two materials have many similarities. Researchers reporting in ACS Nano developed a 3D printable ...

As a package substrate, the benefits of glass are substantial. It’s extremely flat with lower thermal expansion than organic substrates, which simplifies lithography. And that’s just for starters.

A rare mineral from a 1724 meteorite defies the rules of heat flow, acting like both a crystal and a glass. Thanks to AI and quantum physics, researchers uncovered its bizarre ability to maintain ...

Crystals and glasses have opposite heat-conduction properties, which play a pivotal role in a variety of technologies. These range from the miniaturization and efficiency of electronic devices to ...

The article discusses how increasing disorder in the atomic structure of materials influences macroscopic heat conduction — a critical property for heat-management technologies. The materials studied ...

Glass isn't as easy to recycle as we might think, so we need as many ways to turn it into new products as we can devise. Researchers at the University of Portsmouth have developed a way to use ...
