X-ray Free-Electron Lasers (XFELs) deliver X-ray pulses with a coherent flux that is approximately eight orders of magnitude greater than that available from a modern third generation synchrotron source. The power density in an XFEL pulse…
The evolution of the nuclear and magnetic structures of TlFe$_{1.6}$Se$_2$ was determined in the temperature range of 5-450\,K using single crystal neutron diffraction. The Fe layers in these materials develop a corrugation in the…
We report measurements of the resistance of silicon MOSFETs as a function of temperature in high parallel magnetic fields where the 2D system of electrons has been shown to be fully spin-polarized. A magnetic field suppresses the metallic…
Free-standing Bi$_2$Se$_3$ single crystal flakes of variable thickness are grown using a catalyst-free vapor-solid synthesis and are subsequently transferred onto a clean Si$^{++}$/SiO$_2$ substrate where the flakes are contacted in Hall…
Through powder x-ray diffraction we have investigated the structural behavior of SmVO3, in which orbital and magnetic degrees of freedom are believed to be closely coupled to the crystal lattice. We have found, contrary to previous reports,…
The controversies about the structure of the true ground state of pseudorhombohedral compositions of Pb(ZrxTi1-x)O3 (PZT) are addressed using a 6% Sr2+ substituted sample with x=0.550. Sound velocity measurements reveal a phase transition…
In the pressure range 5-12 GPa the fractional valence of cerium is independent of pressure because of the coexistence of two or more structural phases. The observation of a single crystallographic structure in this pressure range arises…
A FePd alloy was nanostructured by severe plastic deformation following two different routes: ordered and disordered states were processed by high pressure torsion (HPT). A grain size in a range of 50 to 150 nm is obtained in both cases.…
We report on magnetoresistance, Hall and magnetization measurements of Fe2VAl1-xSix Heusler compounds for x= 0.005, 0.015, 0.02. There is a systematic change in the temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) from negative to positive as…
In semiconductors, quantum confinement can greatly enhance the interaction between band carriers (electrons and holes) and dopant atoms. One manifestation of this enhancement is the increased stability of exciton magnetic polarons in…
Bulk nanocrystalline materials of small and medium ferromagnetic content were produced using severe plastic deformation by high-pressure torsion at roomtemperature. Giant magnetoresistive behavior was found for as deformed materials, which…
Neutron diffraction studies of antiferromagnetic CoO confined to a vycor type porous glass demonstrate a continuous magnetic phase transition with a decreased N\'eel temperature and reduced magnetic moment as compared with the bulk.
The thermal stability of nanocrystalline (nc) Al has been studied by means of positron lifetime spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD), prepared by compacting nanoparticles under high pressures. Those nanoparticles were produced by the…
The effect of electron doping on the structural, transport, and magnetic properties of Mn (IV) - rich Ca1-xYxMnO3 (x < 0.2) samples have been investigated using neutron diffraction, neutron depolarization, magnetization and resistivity…
The aging behavior of 3-mol%-yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (3Y-TZP) ceramics sintered in air and in reducing conditions was investigated at 140{\deg}C in water vapor. It was observed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) that 3Y-TZP samples…
We present neutron diffraction measurements in high magnetic fields (0 to 14.5 T) and at low temperatures (2.5, 2.3, 0.77 and 0.068 K) on single crystals of the tetragonal heavy fermion antiferromagnet Ce2RhIn8. For B//[110] the field…
Anomalous Hall effect studies were performed at 300 K on Si/Fe multilayers prepared by dc magnetron sputtering. About 60 times enhancement in the saturation Hall resistance and 80 times enhancement in anomalous Hall coefficient are obtained…
The results of characterization of TiAlSiON hard coatings deposited on ferric-chromium AISI 430 stainless steel by plasma enhanced magnetron sputtering are presented. The coating with maximum hardness (of 45 GPa) was obtained at the…
X-ray diffraction was demonstrated from shock-compressed polycrystalline metal on nanosecond time scales. Laser ablation was used to induce shock waves in polycrystalline foils of Be, 25 to 125 microns thick. A second laser pulse was used…
Applied magnetic fields can alter phase equilibria and kinetics in steels; however, quantitatively resolving how magnetic, chemical, and elastic driving forces jointly influence the microstructure remains challenging. We develop a…
