We report, for the first time, experimental evidence for the nature of atomic defects with different sizes in glass and crystalline phase of Ge–Te alloys using positron lifetime spectroscopy. The obtained positron lifetime results have been correlated with the size of the open volume (cavities) defects. We provide dir…

Magnetic properties of polycrystalline La1−xCaxCoO3 (0.10≤x≤0.25) are systemically studied in this work. It is found that all the samples exhibit the ferromagnetic states at low temperatures with two ferromagnetic transitions. A detailed analysis on their magnetic susceptibilities reveals that the Co ions of those com…

We have studied the electronic structures and magnetism of SrFeO2 under pressure by first-principles calculations in the framework of density functional theory (DFT) with GGA+U and HSE06 hybrid functionals, respectively. The pressure-induced spin transition from S = 2 to S = 1 and the antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic (…

The hydrogen storage system [MgH2–2LiBH4] shows attractive properties such as favorable thermodynamics, high hydrogen capacity and reversibility. However, there exists an incubation period that amounts up to 10 hours in the dehydrogenation steps, which restricts this system as a practical material. In this study, the…

Two stress relaxation constitutive models have been developed to predict the stress relaxation behavior for high-temperature bolting according to continuum damage mechanics, Kachanov–Robatnov (K–R), and Othman–Hayhurst (O–H) creep constitutive equations as well as stress relaxation strain equations. To validate the ef…

A solid-state electrochromic device using 3-D conducting fluorinated tin oxide nanobeads (roughness factor >500) as electrodes enables fast electron transport and concentrates the voltage drop at the interfaces. This method reduces the driving voltage to 0.9 V and the response time to ∼272 ms, far exceeding the perfor…
