We report the observation of a novel phenomenon, the self-retracting motion of graphite, in which tiny flakes of graphite, after being displaced to various suspended positions from islands of highly […]
Using a compact nanoprobing setup comprising eight probe tips attached to piezo-driven micromanipulators, various techniques for fault isolation are performed on 28 nm samples inside an SEM. The employed techniques […]
Probing is increasingly utilized as a technique for the characterization of the local electrical properties of an integrated circuit, as well as the isolation of defects. Test structures and/or SRAM […]
Abstract A common expectation in heterogeneous catalysis is that the optimal activity will occur for the particle size with the highest concentration of undercoordinated step, edge, or corner sites, expectedly […]
Abstract Manganese oxides are attracting great interest owing to their rich polymorphism and multiple valent states, which give rise to a wide range of applications in catalysis, capacitors, ion batteries, […]
Abstract Precipitation hardening is one of the most important strengthening mechanisms in metallic materials, and thus, controlling precipitation is often critical in optimizing mechanical performance. Also other performance requirements such […]
Abstract and Figures The middle Anisian extensional tectonics of the Neotethyan realm developed a small, isolated carbonate platform in the middle part of the Balaton Highland (western Hungary), resulted in […]
Abstract Polar textures have attracted significant attention in recent years as a promising analogto spin-based textures in ferromagnets. Here, using optical second harmonic generation basedcircular dichroism, we demonstrate deterministic and […]
Abstract Large interfacial resistance plays a dominant role in the performance of all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries. However, the mechanism of interfacial resistance has been under debate. Here, the Li+ transport at the […]
Abstract The K3Sb4BO13 (KSBO) material undergoes an uncommon symmetry increase upon cooling, from triclinic symmetry at room temperature to monoclinic symmetry at low temperature. The first-order phase transition is accompanied by […]
