Compositive role of refractory element Mo in improving strength and ductility of face-centered-cubic complex concentrated alloys

Complex concentrated alloys (CCAs) with a face-centered-cubic (FCC) structure exhibit remarkable mechanical properties, introducing the expansion of compositional space in alloy design for structural materials. The formation of a single solid-solution phase is enabled by configuring various 3d-transition elements, while doping other elements...

Shape-controlled tio₂ nanomaterials-based hybrid solid-state electrolytes for solar energy conversion with a mesoporous carbon electrocatalyst

One-dimensional (1D) titanium dioxide (TiO₂₎ is prepared by hydrothermal method and incorporated as nanofiller into a hybrid polymer matrix of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and employed as a solid-electrolyte in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Mesoporous carbon electrocatalyst with a high surface area is obtained by the...
