With the emergence of entropy alloys, the scientific community has been persuaded to explore its joining issues for some stimulating and un-explored engineering applications. Currently, CoCrNi Medium-entropy alloy (MEA) is considered to be an excellent cryogenic material which can retain highest strength and ductility even at cryogenic temperature ...

In this study, ZnO (10 nm) and TiO2 (2 nm) were grown on a GaN substrate via atomic layer deposition, and the modified properties of Pt/GaN Schottky diodes with ZnO and ZnO/TiO2 interlayers (ILs) were electrically investigated. The barrier height increased with the ZnO and ZnO/TiO2 ILs; however, the ideality factor increased with the ZnO/TiO2 IL. T...

Solution-processable interlayers are important building blocks for the commercialization of organic electronic devices such as organic solar cells. Here, the potential of cross-linking to provide an insoluble, stable, and versatile charge transport layer based on soluble organic semiconductors is studied. For this purpose, a photoreactive tris-azid...

The increasing demand for wearable electronic devices necessitates flexible batteries with high stability and desirable energy density. Flexible lithium-sulfur batteries (FLSBs) have been increasingly studied due to their high theoretical energy density through the multielectron chemistry of low-cost sulfur. However, the implementation of FLSBs is ...

The shuttling of polysulfides is the most detrimental contribution to degrading the capacity and cycle stability of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. Adding a carbon interlayer to prevent the polysulfides from migrating is feasible, and a rational design of the structures and surface properties of the carbon layer is essential to increasing its effe...

The shuttle effect of soluble lithium polysulfides during the charge/discharge process is the key bottleneck hindering the practical application of lithium-sulfur batteries. Herein, a multifunctional interlayer is developed by growing metallic molybdenum disulfide nanosheets on both outer and inner walls of cotton cloth derived carbon microtube tex...

Results of studying the growth of diamond structures on steel specimens with the use of intermediate layers of molybdenum or tungsten carbide cemented by cobalt are reported. The interlayers are deposited by means of detonation spraying. Subsequent deposition of diamond films onto the clad steel specimens is formed by the gas jet method and a speci...

To improve the oxidation resistance of near α-titanium alloy IMI834, TiAl-(Cr, Nb, Ta) coatings were deposited by applying high-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) and warm spray (WS). Comparison was made in terms of microstructure, surface morphology as well as isothermal and cyclic oxidation behaviors in the air at 750 °C up to 100 h and 100 cycles, respect...
