Proton vibrational dynamics in pristine and nano-confined ammonia borane stud...
In the proposed experiment ammonia borane (NH_3BH_3) will be investigated through incoherent inelastic neutron scattering on TOSCA at low temperature. Since it is well known... -
In-situ Study of Lithium Metal Penetration in Solid State Inorganic Electrolytes
All-solid-state Li-metal batteries aim for higher energy density and better safety than conventional Li-ion batteries due to their inflammable inorganic electrolytes and lithium... -
The structural role of Mg in enhancing the performance of P2-type Na2/3Ni1/3-...
Na-ion batteries have become an important area of research in the last few years. Na2/3Ni1/3Mn2/3O2 with the P2-type structure is a promising cathode in Na-ion batteries due to... -
Dependence of spin-diffusion transparency and spin-orbit torques on interface...
One of the main challenges in spintronics is to provide a link between magnetic elements and conventional electronic circuits. For the switching of a magnetic memory-element an... -
