IIVI compound semiconductor crystals with zincblende or wurtzite structure are known to
exhibit positive photoplastic effect: increase in flow stress and hardness by UV/visible light …

Magnesium oxide (MgO) samples were manufactured at different temperatures using
various solvents of water and ethanol. MgO structure was also modeled and its vibration …

Dislocations are 1D crystallographic line defects and are usually seen as detrimental to the
functional properties of classic semiconductors. It is shown here that this not necessarily …

Dislocations have been severely underestimated as a tool for tailoring the functional
properties of ferroelectric materials, which are essential electroceramic components in many …

Powder compaction-induced surface chemistry in metal oxide nanocrystal ensembles is
important for very diverse fields such as triboelectrics, tribocatalysts, surface abrasion, and …

Plastic deformation of rocks and mineral phases in the Earth's interior plays a primary role in
