Two-dimensional (2D) materials have emerged as a significant class of materials promising for photocatalysis, and defect ...

Learn how the flow of costs impacts manufacturing firms, covering raw materials, work-in-process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold with practical examples and methods.

Classical computations rely on binary bits, which can be in either of the two states, 0 or 1. In contrast, quantum computing is based on qubits, which can be 0, 1, or a superposition or entanglement ...

ABSTRACT: This study evaluated the electronic and optical properties of the Al- and F-doped ZnO by the first-principles study based on the density functional theory. The results show that the Al-3s, ...

Abstract: This article introduces an exact, first-principles method for beamforming with a receiver that is augmented by a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS). We demonstrate a way to synthesize ...

What if the secret to solving the world’s most complex problems wasn’t about thinking bigger, but thinking smaller, breaking things down to their most basic truths? This is the power of first ...

Illustration of a polaron in a crystal: the central bright sphere is the charge carrier, distorting the surrounding lattice. The wavy lines represent high-order Feynman diagrams for the ...

Using an advanced Monte Carlo method, Caltech researchers found a way to tame the infinite complexity of Feynman diagrams and solve the long-standing polaron problem, unlocking deeper understanding of ...

Due to the unreasonable assumptions for the three-dimensional (3D) sliding surface, the calculated results of the global stability safety factor (GSF) of the diaphragm wall slurry trench are often ...
