TL;DR: The enhanced photocatalytic activity of C-dots/WO3 was attributed to the enhanced light harvesting ability and efficient spatial separation of photo-excited electron-hole pairs resulting from the synergistic effect of WO3 and C- dots.

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of high-temperature B2 CuZr intermetallics in 36 metastable B2-CZr-based alloys is investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, a triple yielding phenomenon resulting in high fracture strength and large ductility in metastable Cu47.5 Zr 47.5 Al 5 composites is first discovered and systematically investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, the structural heterogeneity of a model alloy was investigated and the scale variation of the STZs was revealed based on the cooperative shear model and statistical analysis, and it was shown that the spatial structural heterogeneity can be enhanced by severe plastic deformation which can reduce the energy barrier for STZ activation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors obtained significant tensile plasticity up to 0.7 ± 0.1% together with work-hardening and larger fracture strength in bulk metallic glass with only 2.9± 0.3% thickness reduction.
