Lithiation-delithiation cycles of individual aluminum nanowires (NWs) with naturally oxidized Al(2)O(3) surface layers (thickness 4-5 nm) were conducted in situ a transmission electron microscope. Surprisingly, the lithiation was always initiated from layer, forming stable Li-Al-O glass tube thickness about 6-10 nm wrapping around NW core. After inner Al core took place, which converted single crystal to polycrystalline LiAl alloy, volume expansion 100%. The survived 100% expansion, by...

Abstract The mimicking of both homosynaptic and heterosynaptic plasticity using a high‐performance synaptic device is important for developing human‐brain–like neuromorphic computing systems to overcome the ever‐increasing challenges caused by conventional von Neumann architecture. However, commonly used devices (e.g., memristors transistors) require an extra modulate terminal mimic plasticity, their capability simulation limited low weight adjustability. In this study, WSe 2 ‐based...

Ultrathin gold (Au) films are a critical component in plasmonics, metal optics, and nano-electronics devices. However, fabricating ultrathin Au faces great challenge due to the dewetting behavior of when being deposited onto an oxide (such as SiO2/Si or Al2O3) substrate. This problem is often relieved by introducing organic adhesion layer bind film with While interdiffusion thermal instability layers negatively affect physical properties films.
