Research has shown that face-centered cubic (fcc) composites with high-density and nanoscale deformation twins can greatly improve the balance of ductility and strength. Still, the microscopic ...
Understanding how dislocations (line defects in the crystal structure) occur when 3D-printing metals has been unclear to materials scientists. Understanding when and how dislocations form in ...
As 2D materials race toward flexible electronics, precisely tailoring their strain fields without cracking crystals remains a grand challenge. Now, a ...
