Superionics are fascinating materials displaying both solid- and liquid-like characteristics: as solids, they respond elastically to shear stress; as liquids, they display fast-ion diffusion at normal ...

IN a previous communication 1 the non-Newtonian behaviour of certain visco-elastic materials, including rubber solutions and soap-thickened mineral oils, was discussed. Experiment had shown that when ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Droplets of proteins, tied to an increasing number of cellular processes and human diseases, are known for their liquid-like ability to flow, exchange material and dissolve as needed.

Understanding the elastic properties of solid-state ionic conductors, also known as superionic materials, is a crucial challenge in developing the solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) that could replace ...
