Enhanced energy storage in high-entropy superparaelectrics via local ferroelectric polarization

By introducing local ferroelectric regions into a high-entropy superparaelectric, researchers develop a design strategy for high-performance energy storage ceramics. They incorporate ferroelectric PbTiO₃ into a high-entropy matrix, achieving a high recoverable energy density.

In situ atomic observations of aggregation growth and evolution of penta-twinned gold nanocrystals

The mechanisms underlying the nonclassical growth of penta-twinned gold nanocrystals remain unclear. Here, the authors elucidate the atomic-level processes that drive size-dependent and twin configuration-related aggregation phenomena.

Enhancing piezoelectric coefficient and thermal stability in lead-free piezoceramics: insights at the atomic-scale

The authors reveal that the incorporation of doping elements with varying electronic structures and ionic radii alters the atomic-scale configuration, thereby affecting the local energy barrier associated with polarization rotation.
