Structure Meets Function at Materials Gathering

Robert F. Service

SAN FRANCISCO—Engineers, physicists, and other scientists interested in material behavior came together at the 1994 spring meeting of the Materials Research Society from 4 to 8 April. Among the 2200 papers given, researchers heard presentations on a variety of functional substances: a semiconductor suitable for a laser that gives off blue light, an improved magnetic refrigerator, and a method of keeping pollutants from forming in engine exhaust.
