APL Materials is an open access journal that features original research on significant topical issues within the field of materials science. The journal also publishes Perspectives, Research Updates, and Special Topic collections on emerging topics in materials science.
Multicaloric effect refers to a thermal response of materials driven by multiple external fields. In this work, we explore the possibility by adopting multicaloric strategy to improve the ...
2D materials provide a rapidly expanding platform for the observation of novel physical phenomena and for the realization of cutting-edge optoelectronic devices. In addition to their peculiar ...
Epitaxial untwinned SrRuO3 thin films were grown on (110)-oriented DyScO3 substrates by molecular-beam epitaxy. We report an exceptional sample with a residual resistivity ratio (RRR), ρ [300 K]/ρ [4 ...
MAX phases are a class of intrinsically nanolaminated materials, which combine features of metals and ceramics, owing to the alternating metallic and covalent bonding between atomic layers. Magnetic ...
Film capacitors have widely been used in modern electrical/electronic equipment because of their high insulation property and high-power density. However, the traditional dielectric films suffered a ...
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have attracted significant attention because of the abundant resource and low-cost of sodium. Furthermore, flexible and wearable functional electronics have been presented ...
Two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) based on KTaO3 are emerging as a promising platform for spin-orbitronics due to their high Rashba spin–orbit coupling (SOC) and gate-voltage tunability. The ...
We report on the dielectric and electrocaloric properties of Ba1−yCayTi1−xHfxO3 for compositions 0.12 < x < 0.18 and y = 0.06, as well as x = 0.15 and 0 < y < 0.15, synthesized by the ...
We investigated the influence of the buffer material and a cryogenic temperature deposition process on the voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA) effect for an ultrathin CoFeB layer in ...
