An international research team has proposed using iron oxide and copper oxide to lower photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) solar module temperature. Their analysis showed that the two compounds were able to ...

Engineers have designed and synthesized a groundbreaking new material -- a copper-free superconducting oxide -- capable of superconducting at approximately 40 Kelvin, or about minus 233 degrees ...

Researchers report a copper oxide, Ba2CuO4-y, which exhibits superconductivity at temperatures up to 73 K and structural features distinct from those of all cuprate superconductors known since 1986, ...

Physicists have an explanation for why certain materials can conduct electricity without resistance at temperatures well above those required by conventional superconductors. Understanding this exotic ...

In order to prove that reduction temperatures shift increasingly to lower temperatures as the reducing gas’ partial pressure increases, materials with a higher reduction temperature were tested. As a ...

Strongest Cu-Ta-Li alloy to date demonstrates exceptional strength and stability for advanced engineering applications. (Nanowerk News) A team of researchers from Arizona State University, the U.S.

From the last several lithography nodes, in the 14 to 10nm range, to the latest nodes, in the 7 to 5nm range, the requirements for patterning and image transfer materials have increased dramatically.

A new copper alloy, a Cu-3Ta-0.5Li nanocrystalline alloy, exhibits remarkable resistance to coarsening and creep deformation, even at temperatures near its melting point. The orange-colored features ...

The alloy demonstrates what researchers say are exceptional strength and stability for use in advanced engineering applications. The Cu-3Ta-0.5Li nanocrystalline alloy exhibits resistance to ...
