TL;DR: In this paper, stress evolution in the α phase of the alumina scale formed on single crystals of (111) NiAl as a function of oxidation time at 1100 °C was reported.

TL;DR: In this paper, a model for the development of cross-hatch surface morphology in growing mismatched layers is proposed and investigated, which incorporates two important elements: (i) strain relaxation due to dislocation glide in the layer interior that is also associated with misfit dislocation formation at the film/substrate interface and (ii) lateral surface transport that eliminates surface steps that originated from dislocation drift.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate and discuss challenges and pitfalls during the application and evaluation of GITT measurements for determining kinetic coefficients of Li-insertion electrodes, which becoming important at low temperatures.

TL;DR: In this paper, the key properties of a successful cathode material, such as the structural stability during delithiation, the battery voltage, and the Li mobility, were investigated for Al-doped Li-Mn-Ni oxide structures, using density-functional theory and the nudged-elastic band method.

TL;DR: In this paper, the GITT measurements of LixCoO2/Li half-cell voltages were numerically simulated based on Newman's well established electrochemical pseudo 2D model, which revealed differences in the charge transfer kinetics between charging and discharging.
