A team led by scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory explored how atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) crystals can grow over 3D objects and how the curvature of those objects can stretch and strain the
![Snowflakes indicate phases of super-cold ice](/sites/default/files/styles/list_page_thumbnail/public/2019-05/19-G00404_Tulk_PR_0.jpg?h=e4fbc3eb&itok=5fn8aUhP)
An ORNL-led team's observation of certain crystalline ice phases challenges accepted theories about super-cooled water and non-crystalline ice. Their findings, reported in the journal Nature, will also lead to better understanding of ice and its various phases found on other planets, moons and elsewhere in space.
