Just as a snowflake's intricate structure vanishes when it melts and transforms when it refreezes, the microstructure of ...

Some of the materials in the family of Heusler alloys were predicted to have a half-metallic nature, but their half-metallic electronic structure varies with their composition ratio and atomic ...

Pure metals often exhibit properties inferior to those of alloys of several metals, sometimes with other elements such as carbon or silicon added into the mix. By varying the composition and the ratio ...

Scientists have developed a new alloy composed of multiple metals that exhibits nearly zero thermal expansion across an ...

Advanced software for alloy design transforms materials research, allowing efficient specimen preparation and precise control ...

Invar, for example, an alloy of iron and nickel ... structure that always repeats itself in exactly the same way. The composition of the material is not the same at every point, it is heterogeneous.
