In a Nature Physics paper, scientists demonstrate that mechanical resonators can be made into a nonlinear system with vibrations approaching the quantum ground state.
In a Journal of the American Chemical Society paper, scientists report that cyclic spacers offer more desirable properties compared to linear ones when designing 2D lead iodide perovskites with thermally-demanding optoelectronic applications.
In a study published in Carbon, researchers use atomic layer deposition to distinguish between different common surface terminations on diamond, which is important to quantum sensing applications.
In a Science paper, researchers report developing a cobalt-based catalyst to replace the expensive iridium-based catalyst used in electrolyzers for hydrogen and oxygen separation from water.
In a Computational Materials Science paper, scientists describe an automated workflow, Elastemp, to predict the temperature dependence of the thermal expansion coefficients and elastic constants for materials.
