Abstract Models for grain size dependence of flow stress typically ignore contributions from
geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs) in the grain boundary regions. Ashby had …

Experiments have shown that high strength and high plastic stability are difficult to be
simultaneously obtained in crystalline-amorphous layered composites. Here we report a …

In this study, microstructural features direct metal laser melted (DMLM) aluminium–silicon-
magnesium (AlSi10Mg) are investigated using advanced transmission electron microscopy …

Crystalline metals generally exhibit good deformability but low strength and poor irradiation
tolerance. Amorphous materials in general display poor deformability but high strength and …

Using the methods of transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive
spectroscopy, we study the microstructure and phase composition of the coating and …

Crystalline-amorphous nanolaminates allow for a unique combination of high strength and
good ductility. This promising mechanical behavior is attributed to the different deformation …

In this study, samarium (Sm-10at%)-doped BiFeO3 (SmBFO) thin films were grown on
platinum-coated glass substrates using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) to unveil the …

High‐quality aluminum (Al)/silicon (Si) heterojunction is crucial in a wide range of
applications, such as superconductivity, interfacial heat exchanging, interconnection of Si …
