Physicists from the Russian Academy of Sciences have described the mobility of line defects, or dislocations, in uranium dioxide. This will enable future predictions of nuclear fuel behavior under ...

ZEBSs at the ends of a long atomic line defect (about 15 Te/Se atoms in length). a, An STM topographic image of the long 1D atomic line defect. b, Spatial zero-energy mapping. c, Tunnelling spectra ...

Researchers have discovered that engineering one-dimensional line defects into certain materials can increase their electrical performance. Materials engineers don't like to see line defects in ...

AMES, Iowa – Materials engineers don’t like to see line defects in functional materials. The structural flaws along a one-dimensional line of atoms generally degrades performance of electrical ...

Understanding how dislocations (line defects in the crystal structure) occur when 3D-printing metals has been unclear to materials scientists. Understanding when and how dislocations form in ...
