Metal silicides have received significant attention due to their high process compatibility, low resistivity, and structural stability. In nanowire (NW)…

Here, we report the solution phase synthesis of axial heterostructure Si and Ge (hSG) nanowires (NWs). The NWs were grown…

This article details the analytical electron microscopy techniques that can provide atomically resolved and quantitative chemical compositional as well as…

Ge1–xSnx nanowires incorporating a large amount of Sn would be useful for mobility enhancement in nanoelectronic devices, a definitive transition…

A scalable and cost‐effective process is used to electroplate metallic Zn seeds on stainless steel substrates. Si and Ge nanowires…

Pulsed laser thermal annealing (LTA) has been thoroughly investigated for the formation of low-resistance stanogermanide contacts on Ge0.91Sn0.09 substrates. Three…

Although the existence of a five-metal (Mo-Tc-Ru-Rh-Pd) phase – as nanoparticles observed in irradiated nuclear fuel – has been known…

We have made observations of noble metal phase fission-product agglomerates and gaseous xenon within the fuel-cladding interaction (FCI) zone of…

Growing III-nitride nanowires on 2D materials is advantageous as it effectively decouples the underlying growth substrate from the properties of…

The combination of two active Li-ion materials (Ge and Sn) can result in improved conduction paths and higher capacity retention.…

Conducting nuclear materials analysis at the micron scale offers a number of advantages over the bulk scale, including: (1) access…

We assess the validity of criteria based on size mismatch and thermodynamics in predicting the stability of the rare class…
