A major factor contributing to the failure of orthopedic and orthodontic implants is post-surgical infection. Coating metallic implant surfaces with anti-microbial agents has shown promise but does not always prevent the formation of bacterial biofilms. Furthermore, breakdown of these coatings within the human body ca…

Energetic materials are substances that can undergo rapid, exothermic reactions when subjected to an external stimulus, such as heating. In this work, we show that the well-known Peng–Robinson equation of state can be applied to energetic materials, whether they are pure components, liquid mixtures, or solid mixtures.…

Through empirical observations, sodium (Na) has been identified as a benign contaminant in some thin-film solar cells. Here, we intentionally contaminate thermally evaporated tin sulfide (SnS) thin-films with sodium and measure the SnS absorber properties and solar cell characteristics. The carrier concentration incre…

Aberration-corrected microscopy in a scanning transmission electron microscope requires the fast and accurate measurement of lens aberrations to align or 'tune' the corrector. Here, we demonstrate a method to measure aberrations based on acquiring a 4D data set on a pixelated detector. Our method is compared to existi…

The advent of friction stir welding (FSW) in 1991 has been evolutionary in the joining of metals and related materials. Friction stir welding has enabled the joining of metals that could not be joined by other welding processes. Research has shown that dissimilar materials with very different properties, plastics, com…
