High pressure synthesis of rhenium nitride pernitride ReN$_2$ with crystal structure unusual for transition metal dinitrides and high values of hardness and bulk modulus attracted significant attention to this system. We investigate the…
Structural and magnetic properties have been studied for polycrystalline Zn_1-xMn_xO (x=0.02, 0.03, 0.05). Low-temperature (~500 oC) synthesis leaves unreacted starting ZnO and manganese oxides. Contrary to a recent report, no bulk…

Boron nitride (BN) is a material with outstanding technological promise because of its exceptional thermochemical stability, structural, electronic and thermal conductivity properties, and extreme hardness. Yet, the relative thermodynamic…
Magnetic materials can host skyrmions, which are topologically non-trivial spin textures. In chiral magnets with cubic lattice symmetry, all previously-observed skyrmion phases require thermal fluctuations to become thermodynamically stable…
