High-entropy concept introduced with a promising paradigm to obtain exotic physical properties has motivated us to explore the thermoelectric properties of Sr-substituted high-entropy rare-earth cobaltates i.e.,…
Practical applications of thermoelectric (TE) materials are constrained by less developments of high-performance n-type materials compared to their p-type counterparts. Chalcopyrite CdSnAs2 is a promising n-type semiconductor for…
SnTe, an archetypical topological crystalline insulator, often shows a transition from a highly symmetric cubic phase to a rhombohedral structure at low temperatures. In order to achieve the highly symmetric cubic phase at low temperatures…
Phase transitions in metal halide perovskites triggered by external provocations produce significantly different material properties, providing a prodigious opportunity for a comprehensive applications. In the present study, the first…

The easily tunable emission of halide perovskite nanocrystals throughout the visible spectrum makes them an extremely promising material for light-emitting applications. Whereas high quantum yields and long-term colloidal stability have…
The in plane coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and the residual stress of nanostructured W based coatings are extensively investigated. The CTE and the residual stresses are derived by means of an optimized ad-hoc developed…
Improving the critical transition temperature (TC) of Bi(Pb)SrCaCuO (B(P)SCCO) high-temperature superconductors is important, however, considerable challenges exist. In this study, on the basis of the metamaterial structure and the idea…
Copper ferrite nanoparticles have catalytic activity for hydrogen peroxide, which can be used in many fields. This characteristic comes from the physical properties of matters at nanometer scale. Thus, controlling the size and aggregation…
Some topological insulators become superconducting when doped with Cu and Pd. Superconductivity in a non-superconductor may be induced by proximity effect: i.e. Contacting a non-superconductor with a superconductor. The superconducting…
Fast scanning calorimetry (FSC) was employed to investigate glass softening dynamics in amorphous solid water (ASW) nano-aggregates with thicknesses ranging from 2 to 20 nm. ASW nano-aggregates were prepared by vapor-deposition on the…
Predicting the microstructure during selective laser sintering (SLS) is of great interests, which can compliment the current time and cost expensive trial-and-error principle with an efficient computational design tool. However, it still…
