Scientists have observed a correlation between the presence of intermediate S-polymorph phases in lanthanum-doped bismuth ferrite thin films and their high piezoelectric response.
By heating the material, scientists discovered states of local broken symmetry, which may enable the technologically relevant properties - such as those for quantum computing and electronics - that arise at much-lower temperature.
Scientists have achieved record-high electron doping in a layered ferromagnet, causing magnetic phase transition with significant promise for future electronics.
Scientists have designed an eco-friendly protocol for synthesizing gold nanoparticles with optimized morphology for near-infrared light absorption using a biomolecule called B3 peptide.
