The study, published in Nature Communications, shows that interfacial polarization can shift the surface work function of ...
Researchers in the University of Minnesota Twin Cities have discovered a powerful new way to control the electronic behavior of a metal—by manipulating the atomic properties of materials where they ...
A series of sulfides/carbon composites with sulfur vacancies-rich sulfides heterointerfaces are well-designed and developed via a simple one-pot carrageenan-assistant cations-regulated strategy.
CTAB was physically adsorbed on the surface of Bi 2 WO 6 via a hydrothermal method to inhibit interlayer stacking, thus fabricating atomically thick bismuth tungstate nanosheets. The polarization ...
University of Minnesota researchers have discovered that ruthenium dioxide just four nanometers thick can dramatically change its electronic properties due to interfacial polarization. The effect, ...
Plastics are inherently dielectrics or electrical insulators, with electrons tightly bound within their covalent polymer chains, preventing the free flow of charge. This property makes them ...
