Because they have a really nice way of setting up the atoms in the solid and it makes them really nice to create and then investigate!
Also, they are incredibly useful! For instance, the only reason we can have data in a computer it’s because we record the information with a magnet!
But we want to make them better and understand them better, so that’s what I do as a material chemist! 😀 Maybe there is a better technology at the end of the road!
