Researchers have recast diffusion in multicomponent alloys as a sum of individual contributions, called 'kinosons.' Using machine learning to compute the statistical distribution of the individual ...

Nanoporous material-based separation technology is vital in many applications because it can precisely distinguish between ...

The migration of carbon atoms on the surface of the nanomaterial graphene was recently measured for the first time. Although the atoms move too swiftly to be directly observed with an electron ...

Thermoelectric technology enables the direct conversion between heat and electricity based on the Seebeck and Peltier effects, and can be used for both power generation and refrigeration. However, the ...

Industrialized societies rely heavily on advanced materials such as optical fibers, lightweight composites, and silicon microchips for use in a wide range of applications – however, a crucial aspect ...
