Physicists use the concept of quantum Fisher information to explain poor electrical conductivity in these unusual materials ...

Strange metals challenge the 60-year-old theory that electric current consists of a flow of discrete charges. Strange metals ...

Scientists have made metal sheets that are just a few atoms thick. Using their new method, researchers developed 2D sheets of bismuth, gallium, indium, tin, and lead that were hundreds of ...

Research demonstrates that the addition of certain dopants could improve a solid electrolyte’s interaction with a ...

Silver’s prowess extends beyond solar. Samsung’s solid-state silver-carbon batteries promise a 600-mile EV range, 9-minute ...

Furuya Metal Co., Ltd. and Asahi Kasei Corp. have, in collaboration with Nobian Industrial Chemicals B.V. and Mastermelt Ltd, ...

Liquid metal refers to a class of metallic materials that remain in a liquid state at or near room temperature. These materials possess unique properties, such as high electrical and thermal ...

IT is evident, both from an examination of the contours of solid surfaces, and from measurements of the electrical conductivity between metals 1, that the real area of contact between two surfaces ...

Deformation banding is a common phenomenon in metals, when the external stress surpasses the elastic limit. Here, experiments reveal two strikingly different slip bands that result from the same ...
