Strategies for simultaneous strengthening and toughening via nanoscopic intracrystalline defects in a biogenic ceramic
Biominerals are nanocomposites that often incorporate nanoscopic defects such as organic inclusions within the mineral matrix. Here, the authors report on an experimental and computational study into the effects of intracrystalline defects on the intrinsic mechanical behaviour of biominerals.
