The Fe-O system is fundamental to understanding the composition and properties of the Earth's core. Recent studies have suggested the possible existence of stable, iron-rich FenO compounds at around 215 GPa. Here, we performed…

Extreme pressures and temperatures are known to drastically affect the chemistry of iron oxides resulting in numerous compounds forming homologous series $n$FeO$\cdot m$Fe$_2$O$_3$ and the appearance of FeO$_2$. Here, based on the results…

Oxygen and other light elements comprise up to 5 wt% of the Earth's outer-core, and may significantly influence its physical properties and the operation of the geodynamo. Here we report in situ x-ray diffraction measurements of Fe, Fe +…

Iron oxides are fundamental components of planet-forming materials. Understanding the Fe-O system's behavior and properties under high pressure can help us identify many new phases and states possible in exoplanetary interiors, especially…

First principles electronic structure calculations based on density functional theory have been used to study the thermodynamic, structural and transport properties of solid solutions and liquid alloys of iron and oxygen at Earth's core…

A new iron-oxychalcogenide (CaO)(FeSe) was obtained which crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (No. 62) with a = 5.9180(12) {\AA}, b = 3.8802(8) {\AA}, c = 13.193(3) {\AA}. The unique structure of (CaO)(FeSe) is built up of a…

Fe-gluconate, Fe(C_6H_11O_7_2xH_2O is a well-known material widely used for iron supplementation. On the other hand, it is used in food industry as a coloring agent, in cosmetic industry for skin and nail conditioning and metallurgy.…

Interfacial reaction between iron and MgO has been studied in situ during deposition of iron on MgO surface, using soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy. High sensitivity of the technique which is capable of detecting even a sub monolayer of a…

Earth's inner core consists of mainly iron with a bit of light elements. Understanding of its structure and related physical properties has been elusive for both experiment and theory due to its required extremely high pressure and…

The discovery of FeO$_{2}$ containing more oxygen than hematite (Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$) that was previously believed to be the most oxygen rich iron compounds, has important implications on the study of the deep lower mantle compositions.…

The solid inner core of the Earth is predominantly composed of iron alloyed with several percent Ni and some lighter elements, Si, S, O, H, and C being the prime candidates. There have been a growing number of papers investigating C and H…

We have successfully synthesized a new layered iron oxychalcogenide BaFe2OSe2 single crystal. This compound is built up of Ba and Fe-Se(O) layers alternatively stacked along the c-axis. The Fe-Se(O) layers contain double chains of…

Using evolutionary crystal structure prediction algorithm USPEX, we identify the compositions and crystal structures of stable compounds in the Fe-S system at pressures in the range 100-400 GPa. We find that at pressures of the Earth's…

More than a third of all exoplanets can be classified as super-Earths based on radius (1-2 $R_{\bigoplus}$) and mass (< 10 $M_{\bigoplus}$). Here we model mass-radius relations based on silicate mantle and iron core equations of state to…

We have used density-functional-theory methods and the ab initio random structure searching (AIRSS) approach to predict stable structures and stoichiometries of mixtures of iron and oxygen at high pressures. Searching was performed for 12…

It has been assumed that hydrogen is negligibly incorporated into core-forming metals below $\sim$3 GPa, and therefore the presence of hydrogen in iron cores of small terrestrial bodies including the moon has not been considered. Here we…

Precisely determining the oxidation states of metal cations within variable-valence transition metal oxides remains a significant challenge, yet it is crucial for understanding and predicting the properties of these technologically…

X-ray diffraction with synchrotron radiation has been used for the first time to study chemical interaction in the FeO-ZnO system at 4.8 GPa and temperatures up to 1300 K. Above 750 K, the chemical reaction between FeO and ZnO has been…

Earth's interior consists primarily of an insulating rocky mantle and a metallic iron-dominant core. Recent work has shown that mountain-scale structures at the core-mantle boundary may be highly enriched in FeO reported to exhibit high…

The abundant forms in which the major elements in the universe exist have been determined from numerous astronomical observations and meteoritic analyses. Iron (Fe) is an exception, in that only depletion of gaseous Fe has been detected in…
