Metallic materials are usually composed of single phase or multiple phases, which refers to
homogeneous regions with distinct types of the atom arrangement. The recent studies on …

Copper is the most common interconnecting material in the field of microelectronic
packaging, which is widely used in advanced electronic packaging technologies. However …

The strength of nanocrystalline and nanotwinned metals stops increasing or even starts
decreasing when their grain size or twin thickness is below a critical size—a phenomenon …

Short pulse laser irradiation has the ability to bring a material into a state of strong electronic,

Nearly 90 per cent of service failures of metallic components and structures are caused by
fatigue at cyclic stress amplitudes much lower than the tensile strength of the materials …

Nanotwinned (nt)‐metals exhibit superior mechanical and electrical properties compared to
their coarse‐grained and nanograined counterparts. nt‐metals in film and bulk forms are …

Nanotwinned-metals (nt-metals) offer superior mechanical (high ductility and strength) and
