High-entropy alloys (HEA) are of high current interest due to their unique and attractive
combination of structural, physical, chemical or magnetic properties. HEA comprise multiple …

Discovery of graphene and its astonishing properties have given birth to a new class of
materials known as “2D materials”. Motivated by the success of graphene, alternative …

Spin‐polarization is known as a promising way to promote the anodic oxygen evolution
reaction (OER), since the intermediates and products endow spin‐dependent behaviors, yet …

Defects are critically important for metal oxides in chemical and physical applications.
Compared with the often studied oxygen vacancies, engineering metal vacancies in n-type …

Spintronics is one of the emerging research fields in nanotechnology and has been growing
very rapidly. Studies of spintronics were started after the discovery of giant …

Oxygen vacancy (VO), the most common type of defect in metal oxides, could alter intrinsic
properties which are usually determined by crystal structures. Oxygen-deficient metal oxides …

Abstract Two‐dimensional (2D) nanosheets, which possess atomic or molecular thickness
and infinite planar lengths, are regarded as the thinnest functional nanomaterials. The …

Over the past ten years, the search for compounds combining the properties of
semiconductors and ferromagnets has evolved into an important field of materials science …

Transparent hydrogels are key materials for many applications, such as contact lens,
imperceptible soft robotics and invisible wearable devices. Introducing large and …

This review describes a new paradigm of electronics based on the spin degree of freedom of
the electron. Either adding the spin degree of freedom to conventional charge-based …
