Artist conception of chemical processes
// Journal Covers
Via a unique two-step solvent-directed sol-gel process, researchers have synthesized and directly compared the electrochemical performance of several representative graphene/metal oxide (GMO) nanocomposites.
Artist conception metal 3D printing
// Journal Covers
Researchers demonstrate that 3D printing can be used to tailor the dynamic behavior of materials, so long as the feature sizes are made commensurate with the length scale of the governing phenomena.
Nanoporous gold
// Journal Covers
Research team outlines an approach to efficient catalyst design through modeling and experiment for nanoporous gold (npAu).
Radiation hazard symbol
// Journal Covers
Provides a general overview of nuclear forensics, selecting examples of key “nuclear forensic signatures,” which have allowed investigators to determine the identity of unknown nuclear material in real investigations.

Presents a new multimedia data set containing 100 million media objects.
Nanoporous gold
// Journal Covers
Researchers use finite element multiphysics simulations to predict the effects of laser mode (continuous-wave vs. pulsed) and thermal conductivity of the supporting substrate on the local np-Au film temperatures during photothermal annealing.
Images of laser damage
// Journal Covers
This research examine the responses of two candidate capping layer materials, made of SiO2 and Al2O3, over silica-hafnia multilayer coatings to protect high-reflection mirror coatings.

Discusses the formation of carbyne fiber bundles over a nanosecond time scale in laser pulse melting studies.
Graphic of silicon nanowires
// Journal Covers
Research team uses scanning transmission X-ray microscopy to probe bond orientation and bilayer thickness as a function of position with a spatial resolution of ∼30 nm for Δ9-cis 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine layers prepared Si nanowires.
Molecular model
