Calcium aluminates (CA) are the most important hydraulically setting cements used for preparing refractory castables, because they develop high strength at very early ages after placements.  The anhydrous phases of this kind of cements are CA, CA2 and traces of C12A7 and alpha-alumina. The major hydraulic phase in all of the CA cements including ciment fondu...

Garnet-type solid-state electrolytes (SEs) represented by Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) are considered ideal ion-conducting materials for oxide all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) due to their high ionic conductivity and wide electrochemical window. However, there still many problems at the interface of composite cathode side with LLZO-based SEs as ion conductors LLZO has poor interfacial contact ...

Spin–orbit torques (SOTs) that arise from materials with large spin–orbit coupling offer a new pathway for energy-efficient and fast magnetic information storage. SOTs in conventional heavy metals topological insulators are explored extensively, while 5d transition metal oxides, which also host ions strong coupling, relatively territory the field of spintronics. An all-oxide, SrTiO3 (STO)//La0....
