We studied the thermal conductivity of superfluid $^3$He in a 2.5 mm effective diameter and 0.15 m long channel connecting the two volumes of our experimental assembly. The main volume contained pure solid $^4$He, pure liquid $^3$He and…
"F-free" CeOBiS$_2$ single crystals have successfully grown, thoroughly eliminating a concern about F-contamination by using a high-purity CsCl flux. The obtained crystals have a plate-like shape with a size of 1.0-3.0 mm in the…
Colloidal nanocrystal quantum dots (QD) enable the bottom-up assembly of designer solids. Among the multitudinous applications of QD solids, there has been great success in exploiting the tunable optical properties for LED displays,…
Sr2IrO4 was predicted to be a high temperature superconductor upon electron doping since it highly resembles the cuprates in crystal structure, electronic structure and magnetic coupling constants. Here we report a scanning tunneling…
Two-dimensional colloidal halide perovskite nanocrystals are promising materials for light emitting applications. In addition, they can be used as components to create a variety of materials through physical and chemical transformations.…
Electrochemical cells employing Sodium (Na) and Zinc (Zn) electrodes and a chloride salt electrolyte have been imaged by neutron radiography during cycling. The use of such abundant raw materials confers a very low energy-normalised cost to…
Although the microscopic origin of the superconductivity in high Tc copper oxides remains the subject of active inquiry, several of their electronic characteristics are well established as universal to all the known materials, forming the…
Nano-structured silicon anodes are attractive alternatives to graphite in Li-ion batteries. Despite recent remarkable progresses in numerous Si-C composites, the commercialisation with significance is still limited. One of the most critical…
Single crystals of LaNiSb$_3$ were grown using the Sn flux method. Structural characterization confirms that LaNiSb$_3$ crystallizes in the orthorhombic $Pbcm$ space group with lattice parameters $a = 13.0970(2)\,\mathrm{\AA}$, $b =…

The Li$_2$S-P$_2$S$_5$ pseudo-binary system has been a valuable source of promising superionic conductors, with $\alpha$-Li$_3$PS$_4$, $\beta$-Li$_3$PS$_4$, HT-Li$_7$PS$_6$, and Li$_7$P$_3$S$_{11}$ having excellent room temperature Li-ion…
The degradation mechanism in a sodium cell of a layered Na0.48Al0.03Co0.18Ni0.18Mn0.47O2 (NCAM) cathode with P3/P2 structure is investigated by revealing the changes in microstructure and composition upon cycling. The work aims to…
Films of titanate nanosheets (approx. 1.8-nm layer thickness and 200-nm size) having a lamellar structure can form electrolytefilled semi-permeable channels containing tetrabutylammonium cations. By evaporation of a colloidal solution,…
This article reports the experimentally clarified crystal structure of a recently discovered sulfur hydride in high temperature superconducting phase which has the highest critical temperature Tc over 200 K which has been ever reported. For…
According to previous interpretations of experimental data, sodium-scandium double-cation borohydride NaSc(BH$_4$)$_4$ crystallizes in the crystallographic space group $Cmcm$ where each sodium (scandium) atom is surrounded by six scandium…
Ceramic solid-state batteries with sodium (Na) metal electrodes promise enhanced safety and energy density compared to contemporary secondary batteries. However, the critical delamination of the Na metal electrode during discharge - when…
A new form of gold nanobridges has been recently observed in ultrahigh-vacuum experiments, where the gold atoms rearrange to build helical nanotubes, akin in some respects to carbon nanotubes. The good reproducibility of these wires and…
