TL;DR: A flexible thermoelectric material comprising highly ordered Bi2Te3 nanocrystals anchored on a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) network, where a crystallographic relationship exists between the Bi2 Te3 <$$\bar{1}2\bar {1}0$$1¯21¯0> orientation and SWCNT bundle axis.

TL;DR: In this paper, a group of single-phase concentrated solid-solution alloys (SP-CSAs), including NiFe, NiCoFe and NiCoFem, were irradiated with 3 MeV Ni 2+ ions at 773 K to a fluence of 5 × 10 16 ǫ/cm 2 for the study of radiation response with increasing compositional complexity.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new loop punching mechanism for the large helium bubble growth is proposed based on the simulation results, where a large-size bubble grows by pushing out a dislocation, subsequently cross-slipping of its screw components and finally evolving into a prismatic dislocation loop.

TL;DR: In this paper, new interatomic potentials of W-W, Re-Re and W-Re, suitable for description of radiation defects in such alloys, have been developed, which not only reproduce the results of the formation energy, binding energy and migration energy of various radiation defects and the physical properties from the extended database obtained from DFT calculations, but also predict well the relative stability of different interstitial dislocation loops in W, as reported in experiments.

TL;DR: In this article, a new mechanism of dislocation loop formation and transformation by self-interstitial atoms aggregation is proposed, with concurrent molecular dynamic simulations supporting the kinetic feasibility of the proposed process.
