Five single-phase WB2- and MoB2-containing high-entropy borides (HEBs) have been made via reactive spark plasma sintering of elemental boron and metals. A large reactive driving force enables the full dissolution of 10-20 mol. % WB2 to form…

Liquid $^3$He confined in low-density, highly porous random solids such as silica aerogel provides tuneable systems to study the effects of disorder and confinement on the properties of a quantum liquid. New superfluid phases result from…

Exploring the vast composition space of multi-component alloys presents a challenging task for both \textit{ab initio} (first principles) and experimental methods due to the time-consuming procedures involved. This ultimately impedes the…

We proposed a new method for synthesis of metal polyhydrides via high-pressure thermal decomposition of corresponding amidoboranes in diamond anvil cells. Within this approach, we synthesized molecular semiconducting cesium ($\textit…

This study investigates 198 MX5Y5 (X, Y = B, C, or N) clathrate-like structures derived from MH10 superhydrides using high-throughput Density Functional Theory (DFT) geometry optimizations and phonon calculations. A wide variety of…

Density functional theory calculations have been used to identify stable layered Li-$M$-B crystal structure phases derived from a recently proposed binary metal-sandwich (MS) lithium monoboride superconductor. We show that the MS lithium…

We elucidate the thermodynamics of sodium (Na) intercalation into the sodium super-ionic conductor (NaSICON)-type electrode, Na$_x$V$_2$(PO$_4$)$_3$, for promising Na-ion batteries with high-power density. This is the first report of a…

We present first-principles density functional calculations of the electronic structure, magnetism, and structural stability of 378 $\textit{XYZ}$ half-Heusler compounds (with $X=$ Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Ru, Rh, $Y=$ Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni,…

We report that at low Ru contents, up to x = 0.2, the Zr$_5$Sb$_3$$_-$$_x$Ru$_x$ solid solution forms in the hexagonal Mn$_5$Si$_3$ structure type of the host (x = 0), but that at higher Ru contents (x = 0.4 - 0.6) the solid solution…

Since the pioneering works of Peierls, one-dimensional materials have attracted great attention. Still, the synthesis of truly monoatomic chains remains elusive. In this study, we explore a novel path of experimental synthesis of monoatomic…

First-principles crystal structure search is performed to predict novel rubidium poly-nitrogen materials at high pressure by varying the stoichiometry, i. e. relative quantities of the constituent rubidium and nitrogen atoms. Three…

Recently developed single-phase concentrated solid-solution alloys (CSAs) contain multiple elemental species in high concentrations with different elements randomly arranged on a crystalline lattice. These chemically disordered materials…
