Microfluidics is a relatively newly emerged field based on the combined principles of
physics, chemistry, biology, fluid dynamics, microelectronics, and material science. Various …

The work function, which is the energy barrier for an electron escaping from the surface of a
material, is a fundamental material surface property with many applications spanning energy …

Along with the technology evolution for dense integration of high-power, high-frequency
devices in electronics, the accompanying interfacial heat transfer problem leads to urgent …

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are promising to provide effective antiballistic capability because
of their superior mechanical properties. However, the twinning-active Cantor alloy is found …

Attributed to their superior properties over the conventional alloys, high-entropy alloys
(HEAs) have attracted considerable interest. One of HEAs' attractive properties is their high …

Three vanillin derivatives (VTRIS, VTOS, and VCNG) were synthesized using the principles
of Green Chemistry and evaluated as corrosion inhibitors for mild steel in acid media. Their …

The solution behavior of a second element in the primary phase (α (Mg)) is important in the
design of high-performance alloys. In this work, three sets of features have been collected …

Using nickel added X70 steel as a sample material, we demonstrate that electron work
function (EWF), which largely reflects the electron behavior of materials, could be used as a …

Electron work function (EWF) has demonstrated its great promise in materials analysis and
design, particularly for single-phase materials, eg, solute selection for optimal solid-solution …

The surface energies and work functions for ten kinds of Miller-indices surfaces of
hexagonal metals, Be, Mg, Tc, Re, Ru, and Os are calculated by means of the density …
