Across
- 2. The coating that absorbs almost all visible light, making it one of the darkest materials ever created. It's made of carbon nanotubes that are vertically aligned in arrays.
- 3. A next-generation transparent conductor, expected to replace indium tin oxide in displays and flexible electronics.
- 5. A quantum Hall effect material where electrons move without resistance along the edges.
- 10. A metallurgical process named after a scientist, used in the 19th century to produce high-quality steel.
- 11. It is also known as 'wolfram', a very dense lustrous greyish white to steel-grey metal.
- 12. The property of certain materials to exhibit different physical properties in different directions.
Down
- 1. A futuristic quantum material with potential applications in topological quantum computing.
- 4. This element can trap hydrogen isotopes and withstand neutron bombardment without losing structural integrity.
- 6. The particle responsible for giving mass to all other particles, discovered in 2012.
- 7. A crystal used in clocks and electronics due to its piezoelectric properties.
- 8. The antimatter counterpart of the electron.
- 9. This alkali metal is commonly used in secondary atomic clocks after cesium.
