Phase change materials (PCMs) and thin films occupy a prominent place in advanced materials research due to their unique ability to reversibly alter their structure and properties under external ...

Researchers scientists have unlocked a new realm of possibilities for non-volatile phase change memory, a type of electronic memory capable of retaining data even without power. Traditionally, ...

PCMs are materials that absorb and release thermal energy through changes in their physical state. They can be categorized as liquid-gas, solid-solid, solid-gas, and solid-liquid, depending on their ...

Incorporating a phase-change material into concrete, researchers have created a self-heating material that can melt snow and ice for up to 10 hours without using salt or shovels. The novel material ...

Researchers from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) and Tongji University have developed FerroAI, a deep learning model that can produce phase diagrams for ferroelectric ...
