Ridge waveguide metamaterial filter comprising at least one ridge waveguide, at least one microwave or millimeter wave metamaterial-filter and at least one transition structure. The metamaterial-filter comprises a host waveguide including a plurality of ra ...
Fracture is the main cause of degradation and capacity fading in lithiated silicon during cycling. Experiments on the fracture of lithiated silicon show conflicting results, and so mechanistic models can help interpret experiments and guide component desig ...
Lithium-ion batteries provide the power for portable electronics and found many other interesting applications. It is desirable to design batteries with high energy density and long cycle life. Silicon is among the highest Li-storing anode materials in bat ...
Plastic flow is an important mechanism for relaxing stresses that develop due to swelling/shrinkage during charging/discharging of battery materials. Amorphous high-storage capacity Li-Si has lower flow stresses than crystalline materials but there is evid ...
