A series of dual-phase high-entropy ultrahigh temperature ceramics (DPHE-UHTCs) are fabricated starting from N binary borides and (5-N) binary carbides powders. >~99% relative densities have been achieved with virtually no native oxides.…
High entropy alloys (HEAs) are multi-principal-element alloys designed for tailorable mechanical performance and have been attracting significant engineering interest, yet their fundamental behaviour under extreme dynamic conditions, such…
High-entropy materials have emerged as a promising class of catalysts, driven by their high configurational entropy originating from structural disorder in single-phase multicomponent systems. Despite their potential, the catalytic…
The determination of phase behavior and, in particular, the nature of phase transitions in two-dimensional systems is often clouded by finite size effects and by access to the appropriate thermodynamic regime. We address these issues using…
Hydrogen is the simplest bipolar element and its valence state can be controlled from +1 to -1. We synthesized the 1111-type CaFeAsH and LnFeAsO1-xHx (Ln = lanthanide) with the ZrCuSiAs type structure by a high-pressure synthesis method.…
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are a new class of materials which are being energetically studied around the world. HEAs are characterized by a multi-component alloy in which five or more elements randomly occupy a crystallographic site. The…
We report on the local electronic structure of oxygen incorporated FeTe and FeSe films and how this relates to superconductivity observed in these films. In the case of FeTe, intially grown films are measured to be non-superconducting, but…
Alkali metals display unexpected properties at high pressure, including emergence of low symmetry crystal structures, that appear to occur due to enhanced electronic correlations among the otherwise nearly-free conduction electrons. We…
The structure of graphite oxide (GO) has been systematically studied using various tools such as SEM, TEM, XRD, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), 13C solid state NMR, and O K-edge X-ray…
The presence of oxygen vacancy, as well as ordering of vacancies plays an important role in determining the electronic, ionic and thermal transport properties of many transition metal oxide materials. Controlling the concentration of oxygen…
Advanced X-ray spectroscopic techniques are widely recognized as state-of-the-art tools for probing the electronic structure, bonding, and chemical environments of the heaviest elements in the periodic table. In this study, we employ X-ray…
Fe K-edge and Se K-edge x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) measurements are used to study FeSe$_{1-x}$Te$_{x}$ electronic structure of chalcogenides. An intense Fe K-edge pre-edge peak due to Fe 1s$\to$3d (and admixed Se/Te $p$…
Polycrystalline samples of ternary rare earth germanides R$_{2}$Co$_{3}$Ge$_{5}$(R = La, Ce and Pr) have been prepared and investigated by means of magnetic susceptibility, isothermal magnetization, electrical resistivity and specific heat…
We perform density functional theory calculation to investigate the structural and electronic properties of various two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides, MX$_2$ (M$=$Ti, V, Cr, Zr, Nb, Mo, Hf, Ta, or W, and X$=$S or Se), and…
We report on strong dipole transitions to 3d orbitals of neighboring Co atoms in the Co 1s x-ray absorption pre-edge. They are revealed by applying high-resolution resonant x-ray emission spectroscopy (RXES) to compounds containing CoO6…
High entropy alloys (HEAs) are a new class of metals that exhibit unique mechanical performance. Among HEAs, additively manufactured eutectic high entropy alloys (AM-EHEAs) have recently emerged as candidate materials for use in extreme…
Based on first-principles calculations we show that the oxidation of ultrathin films of Ca$_2$N electrides, electrenes, drives a hexagonal$\rightarrow$tetragonal structural transition. The ground state configuration of the oxidized…
Since electronic and magnetic properties of many transition-metal oxides can be efficiently controlled by external factors such as the temperature, pressure, electric or magnetic field, they are regarded as promising materials for various…
Iron sesquioxide (Fe2O3) displays pressure and temperature induced spin and structural transitions. Our calculations show that, density functional theory (DFT), in the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) scheme, is capable of capturing…
Understanding and controlling the chemical states both in the bulk and at the interfaces of complex oxide thin films is essential for engineering a wide range of electronic, optical, and magnetic functionalities, which arise through…
