Ultrahigh elastically compressible and strain-engineerable intermetallic compounds under uniaxial mechanical loading

Intermetallic compounds possess unique atomic arrangements that often lead to exceptional material properties, but their extreme brittleness usually causes fracture at a limited strain of less than 1% and prevents their practical use. Therefore, it is critical for them to exhibit either plasticity o...
