The rapid advancement of 2D materials (2DMs), such as graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), has revolutionized the field of nanotechnology and ...

Defects such as cracks in a material are responsible for everything from malfunctioning microchips to earthquakes. Now MIT engineers have developed a model to predict a defect's birthplace, its ...

One well-known example of such material defect that has been studied extensively over the past century, Upmanyu says, is a dislocation. It occurs when an entire atomic plane is missing from a ...

WASHINGTON—A material defect affecting PW1100G-JM-series high pressure turbine disks linked to a March 2020 uncontained engine failure may be more widespread than originally believed, prompting the ...

image: Defect engineering is an effective strategy to modify 2D materials for enhanced HER activity. By structuring edge defects, vacancy defects and dopant derived defects, the electronic structure ...

Micro-LED display driven with CuIn5Se8 transistors processed by solution deposition. The LEDs are inorganic making them hard to operate without the power available from devices made with the new ...

(Nanowerk News) Quantum magnetometers are able to detect and visualize the tiniest damage in ferromagnetic materials. In aerospace technology or the automotive industry, they can help to significantly ...

A recent review article published in Advanced Materials explored the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in transforming thermoelectric (TE) materials design. The ...
