Abstract Research studies on new materials have shown that cerium–vanadium mixed oxides have potential for use as counter‐electrodes in electrochromic devices owing to the combination of the excellent stability and transparency of cerium oxides and the high ion‐storage capacity of the vanadium oxides. Among them, ceri…

The effects of nitrogen doping into Cu 2 O thin films deposited by reactive radio-frequency magnetron sputtering were studied. It was found that nitrogen is an effective p-type dopant for Cu 2 O and the hole density can be controlled from 1×10 15 cm -3 to approximately 10 17 cm -3 . The acceptor level of nitrogen was…

Metallic multilayers, composed of alternating layers of soft metals, are shown to possess ultra-high strengths when the bilayer periods are on the order of a few nanometers. In fact, the strength of materials may be within a factor of two to three of the theoretical strength limit. The dependence of strength on the bi…

A compilation of data for small molecule organic, polymeric, and inorganic glass-forming liquids shows that the original expectation, that there be a positive correlation between the thermodynamic measure of fragility Cpl/Cpg (or Cpl/Cpc) and the dynamic fragility index m, is not generally true. The results are consis…
