REVIEW ARTICLE September 30 2020 Lead‑free all‑inorganic halide perovskite quantum dots: review and outlook
Halide perovskite is attracting significant attention in optoelectronic because of its unique properties. Lead-free halide perovskites, in particular, have been studied intensively for their nontoxicity. In addition to the attention given to lead-free halide perovskites, the man...

REVIEW ARTICLE September 30 2020 Protonic ceramic electrolysis cells for fuel production: a brief review
Proton-conducting oxides exhibit significant hydrogen ion (proton) conductivity at intermediate temperatures around 300–600 °C. Owing to their distinguished features compared to high-temperature oxygen ion-conducting oxide electrolytes and low-temperature proton-conducting pol...

ORIGINAL ARTICLE September 30 2020 Electrically stimulated hydroxyapatite–barium titanate composites demonstrate immunocompatibility in vitro
For fabricating the filler materials for tissue re-growth, the primary concern should be focused on the immunocompatibility of the material. Lymphocyte T-cells and macrophages activate each other and induce immune suppressive effects. Polarized hydroxyapatite–barium titanate co...

ORIGINAL ARTICLE September 30 2020 Effect of heat‑treatment temperature on mechanical properties and microstructure of alumina–SiC nanocomposite
In this investigation, 90 vol. % alumina and 10 vol. % silicon carbide nanopowders were combined. Initial samples were fabricated by the hot press method under 20-MPa pressure of 1650 °C. Then, the nanocomposites were heat-treated at 1200, 1400, 1500, and 1600 °C for several ho...
