Biominerals – shells, teeth or even bones – are ceramics generated by organisms whose function and resilience have been evolutionarily optimized over millions of years. In contrast to conventional, synthetic ceramics, these biological ceramics often exhibit very complex and well-controlled crystallographic textures (i.e., the spatial arrangement of crystalline mineral grains). In this work, we show […]Biominerals – shells, teeth or even bones – are ceramics generated by organisms whose function and resilience have been evolutionarily optimized over millions of years.
