Motion of defects (dislocation loops) in tungsten at low temperature. Courtesy: CEA “Massively heavy” atoms can move quantum mechanically within a crystalline material at cryogenic temperatures. This ...

Deviations from the perfect atomic arrangements in crystals play an important role in affecting their properties. Similarly, diffusion of such deviations is behind many microstructural changes in ...

• The underlying migration mechanism of Mg 2+ in cathode materials and roles of defects in Mg 2+ migration in cathode materials were studied. • Applications of defect engineering to Mg 2+ migration in ...

This illustration depicts a non-destructive evaluation system empowered by generative artificial intelligence (AI) to simulate and analyze internal material defects. Leveraging virtual defect ...
