Entropic stabilization has evolved into a strategy to create new oxide materials and realize novel functional properties engineered through the alloy composition. Achieving an atomistic understanding ...

We present a graph neural network approach that fully automates the prediction of defect formation enthalpies for any crystallographic site from the ideal crystal structure, without the need to create ...

Research teams from Wuhan University and the China University of Geosciences (Wuhan) have revealed new insights into the formation mechanism of nitrogen-vacancies (NV) centers in type-Ib diamonds, a ...

image: Defect engineering is an effective strategy to modify 2D materials for enhanced HER activity. By structuring edge defects, vacancy defects and dopant derived defects, the electronic structure ...

Atomic vacancies are a type of point defect in a crystal lattice where one or more atoms are absent from their regular lattice positions. Although they might seem like simple imperfections, these ...

A new study led by researchers at the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge and Manchester has achieved a major advance in quantum materials, developing a method to precisely engineer single quantum ...
