DC flash sintering of both pure and 0.5 mol. % Bi2O3-doped ZnO at a relatively high activating field of 300 V/cm has been investigated. It is demonstrated that even high-purity ZnO single crystals can "flash" at 870C. In comparison, flash…
We report the successful synthesis of nanotubules of thermoelectric materials gamma-NaxCoO2 using two different sol-gel routes aided by porous anodized aluminium oxide (AAO) membrane as supporting templates. The gamma-NaxCoO2 nanotubule…
Herein we report on the thermal expansions and temperature-dependent crystal structures of select ternary carbide MAX phases in the Ti-Al-C phase diagram in the 100-1000 deg C temperature range. A bulk sample containing 38 wt.% Ti5Al2C3,…
The structural and magnetic properties of Mn5Ge3Cx films prepared at elevated substrate temperatures TS are investigated. In particular, films with x >= 0.5 and TS = 680 K exhibit a strongly enhanced Curie temperature TC = 440 K compared to…
The structural instabilities of ATcO$_3$(A= Ca, Sr, Ba) are investigated by first-principles calculations. In addiction to the large octahedral rotation instability, a weak ferroelectric tendency is identified in CaTcO$_3$. We show that the…
High superconducting transition temperature is favorable for the applications of superconductors. Some cuprate superconductors have the transition temperatures above 100 K, such as the Hg- or Tl-based 1223 and 1234 phases, but many of them…
Ambient-pressure superconductivity in nickelates has been capped at an onset transition temperature ($T_{c}^{onset}$) of ~50 K, a value that remains lower than the cuprate (~133 K) and iron-based (~55 K) counterparts, despite the promise…
The transition from gaseous precursors to nascent solid particles and their subsequent structural maturation were investigated in single-pulse shock-tube experiments using ex situ Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy of…
Six-line ferrihydrite(FH) nanoparticles have been synthesized in the core of reverse micelles, used as nanoreactors to obtain average particle sizes $<d>$ $\approx$ 2 to 4 nm. The blocking temperatures $T_B^m$ extracted from magnetization…
Nanocrystalline Cu-3 at.% Zr powders with ~20 nm average grain size were created with mechanical alloying and their thermal stability was studied from 550-950 {\deg}C. Annealing drove Zr segregation to the grain boundaries, which led to the…
It has been considered that polar nanoregions in relaxors form at Burns temperature Td approx 600 K. High-temperature dielectric investigations of Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PMN) and 0.7PMN-0.3PbTiO3 reveal, however, that the dielectric dispersion…
Hematite ($\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$) is an antiferromagnetic material with a very low spin damping and high N\'eel temperature. The temperature dependence of the antiferromagnetic resonance in a bulk single crystal of hematite was characterized…
We report structural, magnetic and dielectric properties of Co1.5Fe1.5O4 nanoparticles and their composites with non-magnetic NaNO3. The samples were derived from metal nitrates solution at different pH values. The chemical routed sample…
We present results on structural and magnetic properties of highly crystalline alpha-Fe2O3 nanoparticles of average size ~200 nm, synthesized from a novel sol-gel method using metal alkoxide precursor. These particles are multi-domain,…
In this study, the melting and coalescence of Au nanoparticles were investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. The melting points of nanoparticles were calculated by studying the potential energy and Lindemann indices as a function…
Nanoscale layered ferromagnets have demonstrated fascinating two-dimensional magnetism down to atomic layers, providing a peculiar playground of spin orders for investigating fundamental physics and spintronic applications. However,…
(abridged) We present ATCA and GBT observations of ammonia (NH3) toward the ultraluminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) merger Arp220. We detect the NH3 (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), and (6,6) inversion lines in absorption against the…
The magnetic behavior of $Fe_{3-x}O_4$ nanoparticles synthesized either by high-temperature decomposition of an organic iron precursor or low-temperature co-precipitation in aqueous conditions, is compared. Transmission electron microscopy,…
It is shown that the hadron production in high energy pp and p{\bar p} collisions, calculated by assuming that particles originate in hadron gas fireballs at thermal and partial chemical equilibrium, agrees very well with the data. The…
