Entropy is the measure of the disorder in a system that occurs over a period of time with no energy put into restoring the order. Zentropy integrates entropy at multiscale levels. Credit: Elizabeth ...

As a measurement of a system's randomness, entropy has specific scientific meaning. Last month, we saw how entropy can be scientifically defined in terms As a measurement of a system's randomness, ...

Solid electrolytes with high lithium-ion conductivity can be designed for millimeter-thick battery electrodes by increasing the complexity of their composite superionic crystals, report researchers ...

A recent article in Nature Communications proposed a high-entropy tungsten bronze-type relaxor ferroelectric ceramic with an ultrahigh recoverable energy density of 11.0 J/cm 3 and a high efficiency ...

A challenge in materials design is that in both natural and humanmade materials, volume sometimes decreases, or increases, with increasing temperature. While there are mechanical explanations for this ...
