Quasicrystals


- a a Penrose tiling

I'd seen a post earlier at Jerusalem Hills daily photo about Israeli scientist Daniel Shechtman's discovery of quasicrystals which won him the 2011 Nobel Prize for chemistry, but when I saw a video from the University of Nottingham explaining the significance of the discovery, I thought I'd post it. After all, it is about crystals :) .....

Your video is an entertaining way of explaining the science. Cool!
Thanks, Crystal. There is nothing quasi about you. :)
