When Chen et al. (2015, Acta Mater. 87, 78-85) investigated the deformation behavior of oligocrystalline gold microwires with varying diameters in both uniaxial tension and torsion, contrary size effects were observed for the different load…
The combined strengthening effects of grain refinement and high precipitated volume fraction (~6at.%) on the mechanical properties of FeSiTi alloy subjected to SPD processing prior to aging treatment were investigated by atom probe…
Density functional theory calculations have been performed for the structural, electronic, magnetic and ferroelectric properties of a mixed-valence Fe(II)-Fe(III) formate framework [NH$_2$(CH$_3$)$_2$][Fe$^{\rm III}$Fe$^{\rm II}$(HCOO)$_6$]…
We report on the fabrication and current-voltage (IV) characteristics of very narrow, strip-like arrays of metal nanoparticles. The arrays were formed from gold nanocrystals self-assembled between in-plane electrodes. Local cross-linking of…
The physical property characterization of Al doped Mg1-xAlxB2 system with x = 0.0 to 0.50 is reported. The results related to phase formation, structural transition, resistivity R(T) and magnetization M(T) measurements are discussed in…
Structural disorder is present in almost all experimental measurements of electronic transport through single molecules or molecular wires. To assess its influence on the conductance is computationally demanding, because a large number of…
Low-molecular weight (LMW) hydrogels are gaining interest over macromolecular gels due to their reversible, dynamic and stimuli-responsive nature. They are potentially interesting functional materials for advanced applications such as…
The role of graded interfaces between materials in a cylindrical free-standing quantum wire with longitudinal heterostructures is theoretically investigated, by solving the Schr\"odinger equation within the effective mass approximation.…
Although nanocrystalline alloys regularly exhibit high strengths, their use in structural applications often face challenges due to sample size limitations, unstable microstructures, and the limited ability to plastically deform. The…
Garnet-type Li$_{6.25}$Al$_{0.25}$La$_3$Zr$_2$O$_{12}$ (Al-LLZO) solid electrolytes are promising for all-solid-state batteries but are limited by interfacial resistance. In this work, dense and graded tri-layer Al-LLZO electrolytes were…
