Motion of defects (dislocation loops) in tungsten at low temperature. Courtesy: CEA “Massively heavy” atoms can move quantum mechanically within a crystalline material at cryogenic temperatures. This ...

Defect diffusion is a key process in materials science and catalysis, but as migration mechanisms are often too complex to enumerate a priori, calculation of transport tensors typically have no ...

Addressing the core challenges of weak defect signatures and difficult unknown defect identification in magnetic flux leakage (MFL) inspection of large-bore pipelines, this study proposes an ...

• The underlying migration mechanism of Mg 2+ in cathode materials and roles of defects in Mg 2+ migration in cathode materials were studied. • Applications of defect engineering to Mg 2+ migration in ...
