Most-cited papers in Functional Materials Letters

WHAT CAN BE EXPECTED FROM LEAD-FREE PIEZOELECTRIC MATERIALS?

Dragan Damjanović, Naama Klein, Li Jin et al. · 1 Mar 2010

The reasons for the lower piezoelectric properties in the most studied lead-free piezoelectrics, modified (K, Na)NbO 3 and ( Bi 0.5 Na 0.5 ) TiO 3 , are discussed. Contributions from domain wall motion and properties at the morphotropic phase boundary are considered and are compared to those in PZT. Lead-free, non-piezoelectric solutions to electromechanical…

Synthesis and luminescence properties of novel deep red emitting phosphors <font>Li</font><sub>2</sub><font>MgGeO</font><sub>4</sub>:<font>Mn</font><sup>4+</sup>

Renping Cao, Dong Ceng, Xiaoguang Yu et al. · 11 Feb 2015

Novel deep red phosphor Li 2 MgGeO 4 : Mn 4+ is synthesized by high temperature solid state reaction method in air. The strongest PL band peaking at ~ 671 nm in the range of 600–750 nm is due to the 2 E → 4 A 2 transition of Mn 4+ ion and the PLE…

Hard carbon anode materials for sodium-ion batteries

Ismaila El Moctar, Qiao Ni, Ying Bai et al. · 13 Aug 2018

Recent results have shown that sodium-ion batteries complement lithium-ion batteries well because of the low cost and abundance of sodium resources. Hard carbon is believed to be the most promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries due to the expanded graphene interlayers, suitable working voltage and relatively low cost. However, the low initial coulombic efficiency and…

MORPHOLOGY EVOLUTION AT NANO- TO MICRO-SCALE

Xu Zhao, Xiue Ren, Congting Sun et al. · 1 Dec 2008

Morphology evolution of inorganic/organic crystals during crystallization is a universal growth phenomenon. In this work, we have developed a capping agent-assisted strategy to clearly identify the whole process of morphology evolution in solution growth system. One kind of morphology evolution trend with three types of morphologies of cuprous oxide ( Cu 2 O ) was…

RECENT ADVANCES IN SODIUM INTERCALATION POSITIVE ELECTRODE MATERIALS FOR SODIUM ION BATTERIES

Jing Xu, Dae Hoe Lee, Ying Shirley Meng · 1 Feb 2013

Significant progress has been achieved in the research on sodium intercalation compounds as positive electrode materials for Na-ion batteries. This paper presents an overview of the breakthroughs in the past decade for developing high energy and high power cathode materials. Two major classes, layered oxides and polyanion compounds, are covered. Their electrochemical performance and the…

Functional Materials Letters template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Functional Materials Letters format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Functional Materials Letters template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official World Scientific format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Functional Materials Letters use?
Functional Materials Letters uses Superscript numbered (World Scientific) references, shown as superscript numerals in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A., Jones, B. & Lee, C. A representative article title. Functional Materials Letters 12, 45–58 (2023).
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Functional Materials Letters?
No. DocuGuru generates the ws-ijmpa LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a World Scientific-ready Functional Materials Letters document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
