Positron is an excellent probe of lattice defects in solids. A thermallized positron delocalized
in lattice can be trapped at open volume defects, eg vacancies, dislocations, grain …

In this short topical review, a brief account of the evolution of defects due to controlled
changes in polycrystalline zinc oxide has been presented. X-ray diffraction, Positron …

Defect engineering is a strategy that is attracting widespread attention for the possibility of
modifying battery active materials in order to improve the cycling stability of the electrodes …

The tungsten plasma-facing components of fusion reactors will experience an extreme
environment including high temperature, intense particle fluxes of gas atoms, high-energy …

Monoclinic undoped and Tb doped CuO are prepared by solution combustion method and
