Unravelling the origin of piezo/ferro-electric properties of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) nanocrystals
Yao Sun, Junfeng Gao, Yuan Cheng +2
Metal-organic framework (MOF) UiO-66 nanocrystals were previously believed to be piezo/ferro-electrically inactive because of their centrosymmetric lattice symmetries (Fm-3m (225))…

Diamond nanothread as a new reinforcement for nanocomposites
Haifei Zhan, Gang Zhan, Vincent BC Tan +4
This work explores the application of a new one-dimensional carbon nanomaterial, the diamond nanothread (DNT), as a reinforcement for nanocomposites. Owing to the existence of Ston…
