In recent years, high-energy density materials (HEDMs) have become a significant class of materials within the energetic materials and chemical science communities. Current challenges within this ...

Researchers have developed a key material technology that accelerates the commercialization of all-solid-state batteries ...

INTRODUCTION: Density functional theory (DFT) is a widely used method for calculating the electronic properties of materials. The method is based on the idea of approximating the many-electron wave ...

There are two important physical properties of electrode materials. The first is tapped density, which impacts the energy density of a Li-ion battery (LIB). The other is the particle size distribution ...

A crystal is a solid material whose constituents atoms are arranged in a periodic fashion. A charge density wave (CDW) is a quantum mechanical phenomenon observed in some crystals with metallic ...

Decades ago, the entrance to the somewhat sleepy Francis Bitter National Magnet Lab at MIT was decorated with a movie poster from The Magnetic Monster, a 1953 American science fiction film. Since then ...

It’s hard to get x-ray images of low-density materials, such as the tissues between bones, because x-rays just pass through like sunlight through a window. But what if you need to see areas that ...
