Gmolns
Gmolns are a fictional class of nanostructured ceramic materials introduced in speculative science fiction and used in thought experiments about advanced materials. The name is derived from the fictional planet Gmoln, where early explorers described mineral assemblages that later informed theoretical models.
In the fiction, Gmolns consist of interconnected oxide lattices forming a rigid, porous scaffold with nanoscale
Production and modeling of Gmolns in the narrative typically involve high-temperature sol-gel processes or atomic-layer deposition,
Applications imagined for Gmolns include energy storage in compact or spacecraft systems, lightweight structural components with
