Low-carbon alloy steel exhibit advanced material properties at higher temperatures therefore they are used in piping, pressure vessels, and nuclear reactors.
This article talks about pull-off force and adhesion strength.
The height histogram of a topographical image presents the statistical distribution of z-values (heights) within the image. The histogram is a graph of neighboring columns (or bins). In the histogram, each column depicts a height range.
Graphene is a material formed from carbon in a honeycomb structure with one-atom thickness. It provides distinctive optical, thermal, electronic and mechanical properties. The material can be manufactured into sheets, flakes and graphene oxide to provide a variety of applications to the field of biomedicine.
Nanocomputing is a term used for the representation and manipulation of data by computers smaller than a microcomputer. Current devices are already utilizing transistors with channels below 100 nanometers in length.
There are many other 2D materials than graphene that exhibit a hexagonal array and are uni-atomic. A team of researchers from Brazil and Germany have used theoretical ab-initio methods to investigate how other group IV 2D materials, the so-called X-enes, interact when deposited onto a graphene-silicon carbide substrate.
