Sentences with phrase «by metal electrodes»

The wires are connected to one another and to an external electrical circuit by metal electrodes.

Schematic shows the configuration for structural phase transition on a molybdenum ditelluride monolayer (MoTe2, shown as yellow and blue spheres), which is anchored by a metal electrodes (top gate and ground).

Not exact matches

The two electrodes were then separated in the asymmetric supercapacitor by a solid - state electrolyte, which prevented the oxidization of the metal nitrides.

But since the material that will be needed for the electrode in these batteries is a mixture of the two, it may be possible to save on the initial materials costs by using «lower» grades of the two metals that already contain some of the other.

The migration of those ions is accompanied by an electric current flowing through wires that are connected to the upper and lower molten metal layers, the battery's electrodes.

By making contact along the edge, the team realized a 1D interface between the 2D active layer and 3D metal electrode.

Two years ago, an international team of researchers showed that by manipulating electron spin at a quantum magnetic tunneling junction — a nanoscale sandwich made of two metal electrodes with an insulator in the middle — they could induce a large increase in the junction's capacitance.

But with the new material, either p - type or n - type functions can be obtained just by bringing the vanishingly thin film into very close proximity with an adjacent metal electrode, and tuning the voltage in this electrode from positive to negative.

In a traditional X-ray machine, a filament emits electrons when it is heated above a certain threshold, and those electrons fly through the body and hit a metal electrode on the other side, creating images; CT scans produce three - dimensional images by rotating the electron source.
