Oxygen vacancy migration is a key degradation mechanism for the majority of MLCCs. There are limitations with spatially identifying regions of a capacitor that have degraded due to oxygen vacancy migration. This work showcases ultrasonic attenuation as a non‐electrical and nondestructive technique of identifying oxygen vacancy degraded regions of an ...

Heat‐to‐Electricity Conversion Using Barium Strontium Titanate Multilayer Capacitors
Lead‐free barium strontium titanate multilayer capacitors convert waste heat into electricity via the Olsen electro‐thermodynamic cycle. These capacitors achieve an energy density of 3.7 J cm−3, comparable to the performance of lead‐based ceramics. Their high dielectric strength and broad operating temperature window below 100°C make them practical for

Improved Direct Ink Writing of Liquid Metal Foams via Liquid Additives
The ability to pattern liquid metal is useful for making soft electrical and thermal devices. Dispensing liquid metal from a nozzle naturally results in the formation of spheroidal droplets, making direct‐write printing challenging. Liquid metal foams containing pockets of air can extrude as filaments, albeit inconsistently.

Coarsening‐Resistant Ag Sinter Composites: Mechanistic Insights From Different Ag–Additive Systems
An Ag–WC sintered composite exhibiting superior resistance to thermal coarsening. Different particle‐reinforced Ag sinter composites showed markedly different microstructural responses to thermal aging. The comparison revealed that robust Ag–additive interfaces maintain grain‐boundary pinning, whereas insufficient interfacial stability results in the ...

A‐site substitution in Nb2AlC with Fe yields Nb2FeC, a near room‐temperature ferromagnetic MAX phase. Synchrotron‐based spectroscopy and scanning transmission X‐ray microscopy (STXM) with X‐ray magnetic circular dichroism reveal intrinsic bulk ferromagnetism confined to Fe layers, with weak interlayer coupling across Nb2C layer.

Fabrication of Composite Cathode for All‐Solid‐State Sodium Batteries
The design of composite cathodes for all‐solid‐state sodium batteries must address three critical challenges—interfacial side reactions, interfacial delamination, and highly tortuous transport pathways. This work outlines structural and interfacial strategies to optimize ion transport and mechanical stability, enabling durable, and high‐performance ...
