We review a set of ideas concerning the flexibility of network materials, broadly defined as
structures in which atoms form small polyhedral units that are connected at corners. One …

The controlled preparation of hexagonal tungsten trioxide under hydrothermal conditions
was developed by adjusting of pH value of the initial reaction solution. The effect of pH on …

Kidney stones have a prevalence rate of> 10% in some countries. There has been a
significant increase in surgery to treat kidney stones over the last 10 years, and it is crucial …

Domain walls have distinct properties from the bulk, and tailoring them to suit the needs for
device applications is critical. Tungsten trioxide, WO 3, is of great interest for device …

Systematic advances in the resolution and analytical interpretation of acoustic emission (AE)
spectroscopy have, over the last decade, allowed for extensions into novel fields. The same …

The reduction of metal oxides with hydrogen is widely used for the production of fine
chemicals and metals both on the laboratory and industry scale. In situ methods can help to …

Methods Epitaxial films of tungsten (tri) oxide were grown by pulsed laser deposition at
different thicknesses on a number of different substrates to reveal the effects of (epitaxial) …
