Component regulation and high-entropy engineering for enhanced antioxidant and high-temperature mechanical properties of protective films by Shan Wang, Rui Zhang, Mengya Yuan, Xinlei Gu, Tao Zhou, Mao Wen, Kan Zhang

“…It is found that the unique HEN-Al film exhibits excellent oxidation resistance and high-temperature hardness, attributed to the uniform distribution of Al atoms in the robust high-entropy structure, which creates conditions for forming a dense and continuous Al2O3 barrier layer, effectively hindering the diffusion of oxygen into the film interior. …”

Intensification of Hurricane Idalia by a river plume in the eastern Gulf of Mexico by Jing Shi, Chuanmin Hu, Jennifer Cannizzaro, Brian Barnes, Yingjun Zhang, Chad Lembke, Matthieu Le Henaff

“…This defined a 10–20 m thick strongly stratified barrier layer below the surface layer with buoyancy frequencies exceeding 10 ^−3 s ^−1 that suppresses vertical mixing and became a critical factor contributing to Idalia’s rapid intensification under the relatively less than favorable thermal and wind field environments. …”

Effect of (Al/Ta) co-doped on dielectric properties of CdCu3Ti4O ceramics by Huan Liu, Zhanhui Peng, Yulin Chen, Bi Chen, Di Wu, Lingling Wei, Pengfei Liang, Xiaolian Chao, Zupei Yang

“…Meanwhile, the giant dielectric property of the materials can be attributed to the effect of the internal barrier layer capacitance. The obtained results are expected to provide a new idea for obtaining high dielectric constant and low loss tangent in CdCTO-based materials and promote the practical application of such materials.…”
