Description
Hui Luo and co-authors show that holding a material under pressure can lock in gains that pressure alone would lose. Their 2024 paper names the method pressure aging. High pressure can forge new materials, yet most pressure gains vanish once the load is released.
The team held a layered ferroelectric crystal at high pressure for a full day. After release, its atomic layout stayed changed for good. Its stored electric response grew two and a half times, and its switch point heat more than doubled in range terms. Samples squeezed and released without the hold showed only passing changes. Tests on other materials suggest the trick is broadly useful, at loads plants can reach.
