Understanding defect evolution and structural transformations constitutes a prominent research frontier for ultimately controlling the electrochemical properties of advanced battery materials. Herein, ...

Defect diffusion is a key process in materials science and catalysis, but as migration mechanisms are often too complex to enumerate a priori, calculation of transport tensors typically have no ...

Motion of defects (dislocation loops) in tungsten at low temperature. Courtesy: CEA “Massively heavy” atoms can move quantum mechanically within a crystalline material at cryogenic temperatures. This ...

• The underlying migration mechanism of Mg 2+ in cathode materials and roles of defects in Mg 2+ migration in cathode materials were studied. • Applications of defect engineering to Mg 2+ migration in ...
