Motion of defects (dislocation loops) in tungsten at low temperature. Courtesy: CEA “Massively heavy” atoms can move quantum mechanically within a crystalline material at cryogenic temperatures. This ...
Hidden semiconductor defects often pass inspection but fail later in operation. Learn how latent defects form, evade ...
• The underlying migration mechanism of Mg 2+ in cathode materials and roles of defects in Mg 2+ migration in cathode materials were studied. • Applications of defect engineering to Mg 2+ migration in ...
Lithium dendrites cause poor performance and even explosions in batteries with flammable liquid electrolytes. How these dendrites grow, even with a solid electrolytes, is still a mystery, but ...
Researchers capture exciton movement inside single CuPc nanofibers and show how molecular packing and defects shape energy transport in organic semiconductors. (Nanowerk News) Organic semiconductors ...
Due to their light weight and optimal mechanical properties, modern composite materials, such as carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP), are increasingly used in automotive, wind energy and ...
A new research model called PiGRAND merges physics guidance with graph neural diffusion to predict and control AM processes.
Historically, as in decades ago, rechargeable lithium metal batteries were dangerous. These batteries were quickly abandoned in favor of Li-ion batteries which contain no metallic lithium and are now ...
