Abstract

The technological requirement to optimize materials for energy and electronic materials has led to the use of defect engineering strategies. These strategies take advantage of the impact of composition, disorder, structure, and mechanical strain on the material properties. In the present review, we highlight key strategies presently employed or considered to tune the properties of energy and electronic materials. We consider examples from electronic materials (silicon and germanium), photocatalysis (titanium oxide), solid oxide fuel cells (cerium oxide), and nuclear materials (nanocomposites).
