Crystallographic Anisotropy Control of n-type Bi-Te
Crystallographic Anisotropy Control of n-type Bi-Te

... Since the cleavage fracture easily occurs along this weak bonding plane, the single crystal is difficult to use as the thermoelectric devices. In order to overcome this difficulty, the powder metallurgy method was selected for commercial application of Bi-Te materials. The Bi-Te based compounds have the ...

This uncommon blend of bonding types in MAX phases has given these nanolaminated materials a very intricate and intriguing combination of both metal- and ceramic-like properties. They are good conductors ...

(1991) found that of 10,000 randomly generated codes, only 2 performed better at minimizing the effects of error, when polar requirement was taken as the amino acid property (see also Di Giulio 1989; Goldman 1993; Szathmary and Zintzaras 1992). Were this due to the fact that biosynthetically related ...

Another possible behaviour is a change of the reaction mechanism. This change not only leads to a change in the sensor response rate, ...

Glass transition



The glass–liquid transition or glass transition for short is the reversible transition in amorphous materials (or in amorphous regions within semicrystalline materials) from a hard and relatively brittle state into a molten or rubber-like state. An amorphous solid that exhibits a glass transition is called a glass. Supercooling a viscous liquid into the glass state is called vitrification, from the Latin vitreum, ""glass"" via French vitrifier.Despite the massive change in the physical properties of a material through its glass transition, the transition is not itself a phase transition of any kind; rather it is a laboratory phenomenon extending over a range of temperature and defined by one of several conventions. Such conventions include a constant cooling rate (20 K/min) and a viscosity threshold of 1012 Pa·s, among others. Upon cooling or heating through this glass-transition range, the material also exhibits a smooth step in the thermal-expansion coefficient and in the specific heat, with the location of these effects again being dependent on the history of the material. However, the question of whether some phase transition underlies the glass transition is a matter of continuing research.The glass-transition temperature Tg is always lower than the melting temperature, Tm, of the crystalline state of the material, if one exists.
