The macroscopic mechanical properties of colloidal particle gels strongly depend on the local arrangement of the powder particles. Experiments have shown that more heterogeneous microstructures exhibit up to one order of magnitude higher…
Nanoporous media exhibit structures significantly smaller than the wavelengths of visible light and can thus act as photonic metamaterials. Their optical functionality is not determined by the properties of the base materials, but rather by…
We present an extensive study of structure, composition, electronic and magnetic properties of Ce--Pt surface intermetallic phases on Pt(111) as a function of their thickness. The sequence of structural phases appearing in low energy…
Dense and mesoporous 4% mol Yttria-stabilized zirconia thin films were deposited on amorphous silica substrates. The effects of the temperature on the mesostructure were analyzed, by applying different thermal treatments to the samples…
The anisotropy of the electronic transition is a well-known characteristic of low-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides, but their layer-thickness dependence has not been properly in- vestigated experimentally until now. Yet, it not…
Programmable electron-beam scanning offers new opportunities to improve dose efficiency and suppress scan-induced artifacts in scanning transmission electron microscopy. Here, we systematically benchmark the impact of non-raster…
Pore structures and gas transport properties in porous separators for polymer electrolyte fuel cells are evaluated both experimentally and through simulations. In the experiments, the gas permeabilities of two porous samples, a conventional…
An effective biosensor based on two-dimensional (2D) Co-ZIF-L nanosheets for sensitive electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose detection is developed, which exhibits high electrocalalytic activities towards glucose due to the ordered porous…
Strong coupling between electrical and mechanical phenomena and the presence of switchable polarization have enabled applications of ferroelectric materials for nonvolatile memories (FeRAM), data storage, and ferroelectric lithography.…
In this study, we investigate the magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of nanostructured La0.6Sr0.4CoO3 (LSC) samples synthesized under confinement conditions within porous templates. Using this method, we obtained de-agglomerated…
The changes of polarizational, elastic and structural properties of mutiferroic BiFeO3 under [111] direction uniaxial stress are calculated using density functional theory within the Perdew-Burke- Ernzerhof revised for solids (PBEsol) + U…
We aim to investigate relationships between select processing parameters or inputs (composition, temperature, annealing time) and two structural parameters, specifically, the mean radius and volume fraction of the Fe$_3$Si nanocrystals. To…
Layered molecular materials and especially MoS2 are already accepted as promising candidates for nanoelectronics. In contrast to the bulk material, the observed electron mobility in single-layer MoS2 is unexpectedly low. Here we reveal the…
Most recently, Cu-hexahydroxybenzene MOF was for the time experimentally realized, through a kinetically controlled approach. Cu-HHB belongs to the family of conductive MOFs with a chemical formula of M3(C6X6)2(X=NH, O, S). Motivated by the…
SiC/SiC composite tubes are studied as materials for nuclear fuel cladding. A thorough understanding on the mechanisms of damage to this material requires both an experimental and a numerical study. In situ tensile tests were performed…
To improve transistor density and electronic performance, next-generation semiconductor devices are adopting three-dimensional architectures and feature sizes down to the few-nm regime, which require atomic-scale metrology to identify and…
Two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has attracted significant attention because of its outstanding properties, suitable for application in several critical technologies like, solar cells, photocatalysis, lithium-ion batteries,…
Ultrathin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) of Mo and W show great potential for digital electronics and optoelectronic applications. Whereas early studies were limited to mechanically exfoliated flakes, the large-area synthesis of…
A quantitative comparison of the pore space geometry for three natural sandstones is presented. The comparison is based on local porosity theory which provides a geometric characterization of stochastic microstructures. The characterization…
In this study we investigate the functional behavior of the intensity in high-angle annular dark field (HAADF) scanning transmission electron micrograph (STEM) images. The model material is a silica particle (20 nm) gel at 5 wt%. By…
