Abstract This paper introduces a facile method to fabricate magnetoelectric (ME) composites with microscale lead-free piezoceramic pillars embedded in a ferrite matrix without high-temperature co-sintering. The microscale piezoceramic pillars with a sectional width of about 150 µm were obtained from lead-free piezocer…

Abstract Various easy made planar electric meta‐atoms are presented as alternative designs to the conventional electric‐LC resonator for achieving negative permittivity. Transforming the LC topology of the resonator helps to facilitate transposition of geometrical parameters for the optical regime and also to improve…

The stabilizing effect of alkali and alkaline-earth metal ions on the oxygen donors of four- and six-membered faujausite-like rings has been calculated in terms of Kohn-Sham core-level (O1s) energy shifts with respect to these same complexes without cations. The results confirm and complement earlier investigations by…

In this article, we present two models to simulate solidification morphologies in monotectic alloys. With the first model, we investigate the morphological evolution under the influence of spinodal decomposition. The model requires that a gradient energy contribution for the concentration field should be incorporated,…
