If you accidently touched an electrical motor as soon as it had stopped rotating at high speed, you would burn your fingers. But if the motor was made from a special kind of material known as an ...

when metals are deposited on amorphous substrates, is the formation of completely disordered clusters of atoms. In face-centred cubic metals the average thickness for this stage of growth is less ...

including difficult-to-synthesize ultra-thin amorphous metal oxides such as aluminum and rhodium. This breakthrough, ...
