We demonstrate room temperature ferroelectricity in the epitaxial thin films of magnetoelectric GaFeO3. Piezo-force measurements show a 180o phase shift of piezoresponse upon switching the electric field indicating nanoscale…
Thermal convection in nanofluids is investigated by means of a continuum model for binary-fluid mixtures, with a thermal conductivity depending on the local concentration of colloidal particles. The applied temperature difference between…
Ni/Al reactive multilayers are promising materials for applications requiring controlled local energy release and superior mechanical performance. This study systematically investigates the impact of compositional variations, ranging from…
The size-dependent phase stability of gamma-Al2O3 was studied by large-scale molecular dynamics simulations over a wide temperature range from 300 to 900 K. For the gamma-Al2O3 crystal, a bulk transformation to alpha-Al2O3 by an FCC-to-HCP…
A number of recent studies indicate that the charge conduction of the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interface at low temperature is confined to filaments which are linked to structural domain walls in the SrTiO$_3$ with drastic consequences for…
We present a comprehensive study relating the nanostructure of Ge_0.95Mn_0.05 films to their magnetic properties. The formation of ferromagnetic nanometer sized inclusions in a defect free Ge matrix fabricated by low temperature molecular…
A low temperature hydrothermal route has been developed, and pure phase Ba$_2$Ni$_3$F$_{10}$ nanowires have been successfully prepared under the optimized conditions. Under the 325 nm excitation, the Ba$_2$Ni$_3$F$_{10}$ nanowires exhibit…
We show here for the first time the use of a cold sintering process (CSP) to sinter CoSb3-based thermoelectric materials. CSP at 150 {\deg}C for 90 min under a uniaxial pressure of 750 MPa yields pieces with a relative density of 86 %,…
We report the isotropic plasma atomic layer etching (ALE) of aluminum nitride using sequential exposures of SF$_6$ plasma and trimethylaluminum (Al(CH$_3$)$_3$, TMA). ALE was observed at temperatures greater than 200 $^\circ$C, with a…
Ionoluminescence (IL) and photoluminescence (PL) of trivalent erbium ions (Er3+) in Gd2O3 nanopowder host activated with Bi3+ ions has been studied in order to establish the link between changes in luminescent spectra and temperature of the…
Recent progress in the synthesis and processing of nano-structured materials and systems calls for an improved understanding of thermal properties on small length scales. In this context, the question whether thermodynamics and, in…
Oxides RNiO3 (R = rare-earth, R # La) exhibit a metal-insulator (MI) transition at a temperature TMI and an antiferromagnetic (AF) transition at TN. Specific heat (CP) and anelastic spectroscopy measurements were performed in samples of…
Ni3C nanoparticles of about 40 nm have been studied experimentally to exhibit weak ferromagnetic (FM), spin-glass (SG) and paramagnetic (PM) properties. The freezing temperature of the SG phase at zero applied field is determined as, TF0 ~…
Ta (100 nm) / NdFeB (5 $\mu$m) / Ta (100 nm) films have been deposited onto Si substrates using triode sputtering (deposition rate ~ 18 $\mu$m/h). A 2-step procedure was used : deposition at temperatures up to 400 C followed by ex-situ…

Kinetic understanding of hydrogen co-reduction of multinary and multi-phase oxides is of interest for enhancing sustainability of alloy production and transition to a hydrogen-based economy. Benefits include decrease in energy consumption,…
The thermal dynamics induced by ultrashort laser pulses in nanoscale systems, i.e. all-optical time-resolved nanocalorimetry is theoretically investigated from 300 to 1.5 K. We report ab-initio calculations describing the temperature…
A recent proposal that the metamaterial approach to dielectric response engineering may increase the critical temperature of a composite superconductor-dielectric metamaterial has been tested in experiments with compressed mixtures of tin…
