Recovery of critical metals using biometallurgy. [PDF]
Curr Opin Biotechnol, 2015 The increased development of green low-carbon energy technologies that require platinum group metals (PGMs) and rare earth elements (REEs), together with the geopolitical challenges to sourcing these metals, has spawned major governmental and industrial efforts to rectify current supply insecurities. As a result of the increasing critical importance of

Criticality of metals and metalloids [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015 Significance In the past decade, sporadic shortages of metals and metalloids crucial to modern technology have inspired attempts to determine the relative “criticality” of various materials as a guide to materials scientists and product designers.

Theory of criticality for quantum ferroelectric metals [PDF]
Physical Review B, 2023 A variety of compounds, for example doped paraelectrics and polar metals, exhibit both ferroelectricity and correlated electronic phenomena such as low-density superconductivity and anomalous transport. Characterizing such properties is tied to understanding the quantum dynamics of inversion symmetry breaking in the presence of itinerant electrons ...

Metamagnetic Quantum Criticality in Metals [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2002 We present a renormalization group treatment of metamagnetic quantum criticality in metals. We show that for clean systems the universality class is that of the overdamped, conserving (dynamical exponent z = 3) Ising type. We obtain detailed results for the field and temperature dependence of physical quantities including the differential ...

Material efficiency: rare and critical metals [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2013 Abstract In the last few decades, progress in electronics, especially, has resulted in important new uses for a number of geologically rare metals, some of which were mere curiosities in the past. Most of them are not mined for their own sake (gold, the platinum group metals and the rare Earth elements are exceptions) but are found ...
