Unraveling Hierarchical B-Site Ordering: Mechanism of Microwave Dielectric Enhancement in Complex Perovskite Oxide Ceramics. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
This study maps out the hierarchical ordering in 1:2 B‐site complex perovskite ceramics using a comprehensive multiscale characterization route. It turns out that intradomain strain, oxygen vacancies, and Mg disorder within the ordered domains act as strong phonon scatterers.

Navigating Classical and Nonclassical Realms of Nucleation and Crystallization. [PDF]

Small
Classical nucleation and growth theories have long been foundational, yet recent nonclassical concepts have challenged and refined our understanding of solid‐state genesis. This paradigm shift introduced new, often ambiguous vocabulary. Here, we clarify key concepts, correct common misconceptions, and provide a terminological field guide across systems,

Multiferroic-Centric Materials and Systems Engineering for Battery Applications: An Insight Into Mechanisms, Strategies, and Characterizations. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Multiferroic order parameters – polarization, magnetization, and ferroelastic strain – are positioned as dynamic design variables for batteries. Their mechanistic roles, practical tuning through fabrication and external fields, and ferroic‐resolved characterization routes are unified into a closed‐loop framework, revealing how coupled ferroic responses

Recent highlights in nanoscale and mesoscale friction [PDF]

, 2018
Friction is the oldest branch of non-equilibrium condensed matter physics and, at the same time, the least established at the fundamental level. A full understanding and control of friction is increasingly recognized to involve all relevant size and time
