Discovery of carbon-based strongest and hardest amorphous material
Shuangshuang Zhang, Zihe Li, Kun Luo +22
Carbon is likely the most fascinating element of the periodic table because of the diversity of its allotropes stemming from its variable (sp, sp2, and sp3) bonding motifs. Explora…
Orthogonal electric control of the out-of-plane field-effect in two-dimensional ferroelectric alpha-In2Se3
Yue Li, Chen Chen, Wei Li +7
Tuning the electric properties of crystalline solids is at the heart of material science and electronics. Generating the electric field-effect via an external voltage is a clean, c…
Direct Observation of Room-Temperature Dislocation Plasticity in Diamond
Anmin Nie, Yeqiang Bu, Junquan Huang +10
It is well known that diamond does not deform plastically at room temperature and usually fails in catastrophic brittle fracture. Here we demonstrate room-temperature dislocation p…
Dislocation Slip or Phase Transformation Lead to Room-Temperature Plasticity in Diamond: Comment on Plastic Deformation of Single-Crystal Diamond Nanopillars
Yeqiang Bu, Peng Wang, Anmin Nie +1
Despite decades of extensive research on mechanical properties of diamond, much remains to be understood in term of plastic deformation mechanisms due to the poor deformability at…
