Extended mathematical language captures symmetry in layered materials
Symmetry is all around us, from the repeating patterns of crystals to the stitches in a knitted sweater. In materials science, these patterns are more than just visually appealing: They can influence how a material conducts heat, transports electricity and interacts with light. Now, an international research team led by Tohoku University's Advanced Institute for Materials Research (WPI-AIMR) has…
