The brazeability of AZ31B–H24 magnesium alloy sheet to Zn electroplated, plain carbon steel sheet using an Mg–Al–Zn alloy filler metal and a diode laser heat source has been investigated. While the Zn coating promoted good wetting between the molten filler alloy and the steel sheet, it did not play a direct role in fo…

A hydride reorientation can deteriorate the mechanical ductility of spent fuel cladding and make it more susceptible to failure. Therefore, an evaluation of the reorientation under dry storage conditions and their effects on the cladding ductility are critical issues in terms of the regulation criteria. In this work,…

We study the evolution of structural disorder under cooling in supercooled liquids, focusing on covalent networks. We introduce a model for the energy of networks that incorporates weak noncovalent interactions. We show that at low temperature these interactions considerably affect the network topology near the rigidi…

Abstract A multifunctional nanocomposite has been successfully prepared for pH‐responsive and magnetic‐targeting drug delivery. First, Fe 3 O 4 @mesoporous silic (mSiO 2 ) core–shell nanoparticles were synthesized as the nanocapsules. Doxorubicin hydrochloride was adopted as the model drug; after drug loading, gold na…

We demonstrate the fabrication of superhydrophobic surfaces consisting of micropillars with hydrophobic sidewalls and hydrophilic tops, referred to as Janus micropillars. Therefore we first coat a micropillar array with a mono- or bilayer of polymeric particles, and merge the particles together to shield the top faces…

The constant-voltage electrical stress and 10-keV X-ray irradiation responses of encapsulated graphene-hBN devices are evaluated. Both constant-voltage stress and X-ray exposure induce only modest shifts in the current and the Dirac point of the graphene. Charge trapping at or near the graphene/BN interface is observe…

Electron energy loss spectra enable a detailed quantification of the electronic loss mechanisms in a target solid, particularly in the low-energy region dominated by plasmon excitations. Models of the electronic response in condensed-matter systems are usually derived from free-electron gas or jellium models, which co…
