Cobalt ferrite has attracted considerable attention in recent years due to the unique physical properties such as high Curie temperature, large magnetocrystalline anisotropy, high coercivity, moderate saturation magnetization, large magnetostrictive
Ga- and In-exchanged chabazite (CHA) zeolites with Si/Al ratio of 6 and metal/Al ratio of 0.7 were prepared via the incipient wetness impregnation method, were characterized using N 2 adsorption, electron microscopy, temperature-programed reactions and

The backsheet layer of a solar module provides a safety and environmental barrier to the high voltages running through the photovoltaic (PV) cells and electrical contacts within the core of the module. However, in the past decade, backsheet cracking has
The NIST Charpy Machine Verification Program supplies ASTM E23 certified Charpy reference specimens to customers all over the world since 1989, when the program was transferred from the US Army at Watertown Arsenal, Massachusetts. Starting in 1993

Now that all base units are defined in terms of fundamental constants and can thus — at least in principle — be realized anytime and anywhere, rather than through a measurement chain leading back to unique physical artefacts, who holds the traceability

Metallic additive manufacturing (AM) provides a customizable and tailorable manufacturing process for new engineering designs and technologies. The greatest challenge currently facing metallic AM is maintaining control of microstructural evolution during
Embedded 3D printing enables the manufacture of soft, intricate structures. In the technique, a nozzle is embedded into a viscoelastic support bath and extrudes filaments or droplets. While embedded 3D printing expands the printable materials space to low
Ferroelectric organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHP) with Rashba effect have been considered as new quantum semiconductor materials for physics and materials research in the field of spintronics and optoelectronics. We used first-principles to
