Molybdenum (Mo) is currently considered as a potential diffusion barrier material for copper (Cu) interconnects, and these interconnect structures are generally processed using the technique of chemical mechanical planarization (CMP). While a limited...
Effective electrochemical CO2 reduction to liquid fuels requires that the local catalytic environment facilitates the desired reactivity, yet a microscopic understanding of this environment is difficult to achieve from experiment alone. In this work,...
The high reactivity of lanthanide metals poses a challenge to the electrochemical anodizing of surfaces for nanostructured coatings. This paper presents the first systematic experimental investigation of anodic oxidation of lanthanide gadolinium in a...
It has been demonstrated that a monomolecular surface film with semiconducting characteristics forms on an austenitic, corrosion- and heat-resistant chromium–nickel steel with 0.10 wt.% C, 20 wt.% Cr, 9 wt.% Ni, and 6 wt.% Mn (10Kh20N9G6), micr...
Electrolyte degradation and trace water contamination critically affect the lifetime and safety of lithium-ion batteries. In organic-based electrolytes such as acetonitrile (MeCN), even small amounts of water can trigger
In this study, Ni/Mn-doped cobalt–reduced graphene oxide (Co-RGO) composites were successfully synthesized as advanced electrode materials for supercapacitors. The structural and morphological properties of the composites were characterized usi...
