Theoretical predictions of pressure-induced phase transformations often become long-standing enigmas because of limitations of contemporary available experimental possibilities. Hitherto the existence of a non-icosahedral boron allotrope…
Despite great technological importance and many investigations, a material with measured hardness comparable to that of diamond or cubic boron nitride has yet to be identified. Combined theoretical and experimental investigations led to the…
We report sample preparation, structure, electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility and heat capacity studies of a new compound Yb$_2$Ir$_3$Ge$_5$. We find that this compound crystallizes in an orthorhombic structure with a space group…
Ca2Co2O5 in the brownmillerite form was synthesized using a high-pressure optical-image floating zone furnace, and single crystals with dimensions up to 1.4x0.8x0.5 mm3 were obtained. At room temperature, Ca2Co2O5 crystallizes as a fully…
Single crystals of novel orthorhombic (space group Pnnm) iron tetraboride FeB4 were synthesised at pressures above 8 GPa and high temperatures. Magnetic susceptibility measurements demonstrated bulk superconductivity below 2.9 K. The…
The magnetic properties of a novel cobalt-based hydrogen vanadate, Co13.5(OH)6(H0.5VO3.5)2(VO4)6, are reported. This new magnetic material was synthesized in single-crystal form using a conventional hydrothermal method. Its crystal…
In this paper we have studied, by means of high-resolution neutron powder diffraction and magnetic susceptibility, the structural and magnetic features of selected samples of the HoBaCo2O5+delta layered cobaltite in the low oxygen content…
Boron forms compounds with nearly all metals, with notable exception of copper and other group IB and IIB elements. Here, we report an unexpected discovery of ordered copper boride grown epitaxially on Cu(111) under ultrahigh vacuum.…
The novel spin-chain cobalt oxide Sr5Pb3CoO12 [P-62m, a = 10.1093(2) A and c = 3.562 51(9) A at 295 K] is reported. Polycrystalline sample of the compound was studied by neutron diffraction (at 6 and 295 K) and magnetic susceptibility…
We report the preparation and results of our magnetic and transport measurements on a new Yb-based ternary compound Yb$_2$Ir$_3$Sn$_5$. This compound forms in the orthorhombic Cmc21 structure. DC magnetic susceptibility between 1.8 K and…
New hard magnetic materials with zero or low rare earth content are in demand due to the high prices of the rare earth metals. Among the candidates for such materials, we consider MnB, FeB and their alloys, because previous experiments…
Microcrystals of diaquocobalt(II) oxalate have been synthesized by the coprecipitation reaction of aqueous solutions of Cobalt (II) bromide and oxalic acid. Chemical analysis and thermal experiments revealed that there is only one phase…
The binary metal borides provide a promising platform for searching unique materials with superconductivity and super-hardness under high pressure, owing to the distinctive bonding characters of boron. In this work, combined the…
The formation of boron carbide under high pressures and from elemental reactants has been studied and optimum parameters have been determined by varying the (P, T, reactants) conditions. To this end, stoichiometric mixtures of commercial…
Molybdenum borides were studied theoretically using first-principles calculations, empirical total energy model and global optimization techniques to determine stable crystal structures. Our calculations reveal the structures of known Mo-B…
Previously known to form only under high pressure synthetic conditions, here we report that the T'-type 214-structure cuprate based on the rare earth atom Tb is stabilized for ambient pressure synthesis through partial substitution of Pd…
Marcasite class of compounds provide facile platform to explore novel phenomena of fundamental and technological importance, such as unconventional superconductivity or high performance electrocatalyst. We report the synthesis and…
During past years, a number of reports have been published on synthesis of tetragonal allotrope of boron, t-B52 phase. However, no unambiguous characterization of the crystal structure has been performed to the present time, while…
