Post-Deformation Annealing to Optimize Magnesium Alloys
A new concept to solve the ductility problem of SPD-processed magnesium alloys was examined by using a ZK60 magnesium alloy processed by high-pressure torsion to obtain an HSHD material.
Expanding the Boundaries of 3D Printing Technology
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers introduce a new 3D printing strategy that overcomes the limitations of direct ink writing. Structures can be printed in six different modes, and can even be printed to have different kinetic properties.
Novel Entangled Graphene Mesh for Flexible Electronics
A highly stretchable, transparent, conductive entangled graphene mesh network (EGMN) is developed by a team researchers at Yonsei University, South Korea. The device is mechanically durable, and electrically and thermally stable, even in harsh environmental conditions.
Corrugation Reinforced Composites: A Method for Filling Holes in Material–Property Space
This work illustrates the importance and utility of considering the geometry and arrangement of the components of a composite material in addition to the properties of the component materials and shows how simply the design of the architecture can lead to accessing new desirable combinations of properties.
Initiated Chemical Vapor Deposition Advances for Device Applications
Significant implications of and recent progress made in iCVD-based technologies in three fields: electronic devices, surface engineering, and biomedical applications are discussed.
UV Responsive Bio-based Polymer from Broccoli Seed Oil
Researchers from France develop a new UV responsive polymer from broccoli seed oil.
New Transistor Architecture Enables Ultrahigh-Res Visualization
Researchers from the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, Saudi Arabia, have developed a wavy architecture for thin-film transistors using amorphous oxide zinc oxide (ZnO) as the active channel material. The device achieves both high resolution and fast frame rate display technology.
3D Printing Resolution Beyond Nozzle Size
Researchers from MIT present a strategy to increase printing resolution beyond the nozzle size, while drawing diverse complex patterns with a linear nozzle path.
Octopus-Inspired Design of 3D-Printed Hybrid Metamaterials
New designs were fabricated via multimaterial 3D printing and potential applications of sequential particle release mechanisms were systematically explored.
