A recent article in Nature Communications proposed a high-entropy tungsten bronze-type relaxor ferroelectric ceramic with an ultrahigh recoverable energy density of 11.0 J/cm 3 and a high efficiency ...

The porous (Ta0.2Nb0.2Ti0.2Zr0.2Hf0.2)C high-entropy ceramic possesses interconnected microspheres, abundant interface in the microspheres, and the severe lattice distortion of the high-entropy ...

High-entropy ceramics and oxides represent a burgeoning class of materials in which multiple principal elements are combined in near-equimolar ratios to form single-phase solid solutions. This ...

The traditional approach to materials design is to start with a base composition and then tune its chemistry by adding smaller amounts of other elements or compounds. However, a new approach has ...

The study, led by UC San Diego nanoengineering professor Kenneth Vecchio, centers on a class of ceramics known as high-entropy carbides. These materials have highly disordered atomic structures, ...

Dr. Ho Jin Ma's research team from the Nano Materials Research Division at the Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS), in collaboration with Professor Jeong-Woo Lee's research team from Pusan ...

Thermal insulation material is an essential part of the thermal protection system (TPS) of hypersonic vehicles. High-entropy ceramics have recently received considerable attention in thermal ...

Researchers in China have built for the first time an inverted perovskite solar cell relying on a high-entropy hybrid perovskite material. The result is a device with an improved open-circuit voltage ...

A five-element ceramic aerogel compresses by 98% and recovers its shape from cryogenic to 1500 degrees C temperatures, outperforming conventional thermal insulation materials. (Nanowerk Spotlight) ...
