Formation and stabilization of all-inorganic perovskites for photovoltaics

Zaiwei Wang

All-inorganic perovskite films hold promise for improving stability of perovskite solar cells. However, the desirable narrow-bandgap inorganic perovskites (such as CsPbI3 and CsPbI2Br) are suffering from the thermodynamic phase instability, as the photoact ...

Bridging scales in wear modeling with volume integral methods for elastic-plastic contact

Lucas Henri Galilée Frérot

All mechanical systems, naturally occurring or human-produced, are subjected to friction and wear at the interface of solid constituents. Large portions of energy dissipation and loss of material, in every-day life and industrial applications alike, are du ...

Theory of screw dislocation strengthening in random BCC alloys from dilute to "High-Entropy" alloys

William Curtin, Francesco Maresca

Random body-centered-cubic (BCC) "High Entropy" alloys are a new class of alloys, some having high strength and good ductility at room temperature and some having exceptional high-temperature strength. There are no theories of strengthening of screw disloc ...

Tribological properties of gold matrix composite coatings with carbon nanocapsules containing ionic liquid lubricants

Stefano Mischler, Anna Neus Igual Muñoz

Self-lubricating, gold matrix composite coatings were produced by electrochemical codeposition of carbon nanocapsules filled with ionic liquid (IL) from a colloidal galvanic bath on a nickel electrode. The tribological response of the composite coatings wa ...

High entropy alloys: A focused review of mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms

William Curtin

The high-entropy alloy (HEA) concept was based on the idea that high mixing entropy can promote formation of stable single-phase microstructures. During the past 15 years, various alloy systems have been explored to identify HEA systems with improved prope ...
