Optical absorption spectra of 9 MeV electron-irradiated GaSe crystals measured at temperatures in the range from 9.5 to 300 K were analyzed. The absorption spectra with features caused by Ga vacancies in two charge states and direct interband transit...

A series of three 1,3-phenylene bis-oxamides 3a–c, structurally related to the GPR35 receptor-agonist drug lodoxamide, has been synthesized by reacting the 1,3-phenylene bis-oxalamates 2a and 2b with amines. The obtained compounds were characte...

By testing the creep properties of a Re/Ru-containing single-crystal alloy specimen and examining the microstructural evolution of the allow at different stages of creep using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (T...

AA 1060 aluminum alloy underwent roll bonding with reductions of 25% and 35%, followed by accumulative roll bonding (ARB) for up to seven cycles at ambient temperature. The evolution of surface layer texture throughout the ARB process was analyzed us...

As an efficient energy storage solution, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) play a crucial role in the electric vehicle sector, driving innovation and development in the automotive industry. One common strategy to enhance energy density is to manufacture t...

Microwave Bow-Tie Diodes operate across a broad frequency range, including THz radiation detection and THz imaging applications. When fabricated using modulation-doped structures, these diodes exhibit enhanced detection properties that are best chara...

The high sulfur content in kiln slag ceramsites leads to pronounced efflorescence, significantly limiting the application of such solid-waste-derived products in construction engineering. In this study, a sintering experiment of 50 kg ceramsites with...

Cubic-phase SnSe possesses exceptional crystal structure symmetry while maintaining non-harmonic bond characteristics and ultra-low lattice thermal conductivity, exhibiting superior thermoelectric (TE) application potential compared to its orthorhomb...

Low-dimensional organic–inorganic hybrid metal halides (OIMHs) have garnered significant research attention due to their remarkable optical, electrical, and mechanical properties. These materials feature tunable optoelectronic characteristics,...

As an advanced high-temperature structural material, TiAl alloy, is often used in the manufacturing of hot-end components of aviation and aerospace engines. However, it is difficult to increase the strength at high temperature, which limits its wider...
