Recent Progress in the Phase‐Controlled Synthesis of Ruthenium Nanocrystals for Catalytic Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Template effect and kinetic control enable crystal‐phase engineering of Ru nanocrystals, granting access to either metastable fcc‐Ru or stable hcp‐Ru with distinct surface structures, thermal stabilities, and catalytic behaviors. Moreover, the hcp‐Ru can further serve as an epitaxial template to direct Pd and Rh nanocrystals into the metastable hcp ...

Epitaxially Integrated Electro‐Optic KNbO3 Thin Films on Silicon

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We demonstrate the first epitaxial integration of electro‐optic KNbO3 thin films on silicon using suboxide molecular‐beam epitaxy. Combining adsorption‐controlled molecular‐beam epitaxy, advanced characterization, and phase‐field modeling, we demonstrate phase‐pure crystalline films mirroring bulk crystals with robust Pockels response, enabling future ...

Accelerated Materials Discovery Through In Situ X‐ray Diffraction: Solvothermal Formation of PdxMy (M═Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) Intermetallic Nanoparticles

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In situ PXRD data on solvothermal reactions accelerate materials discovery while simultaneously providing fundamental insights into complex crystal formation processes. Using PdxMy (M = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) as an example, a general formation mechanism is identified, and specific synthesis strategies for ex situ preparation of SnPd2, Sn13Pd20, and SnPd ...

Smart‐Release Ion‐Exchanged Ca‐Montmorillonite for Corrosion Protection of AA2024 Aluminium Alloy

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Smart‐release anticorrosion pigments based on Zn‐ and Mn‐modified montmorillonite were developed by ion exchange of Ca‐montmorillonite and evaluated for the protection of AA2024 aluminium alloy in artificial acid rain. Both modified pigments provided effective corrosion inhibition, with Zn‐modified montmorillonite (Zn‐MMT) achieving an inhibition ...

Leveraging Mechanical Resonances for the Selection of Promising Materials in Complex Phase Spaces

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A central challenge in materials science is the design of new functional materials with enhanced performance for targeted applications. This paper demonstrates that “listening” to materials through measuring their mechanical resonances is a rich, and largely untapped, platform for the rapid identification of promising novel compounds and a powerful ...

Tunable Negative Thermal Expansion in Fe/Cr‐Substituted Nd2Co17 Compounds via Magnetoelastic Coupling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study achieves anisotropic thermal expansion tuning in Nd2(Co1‐xFex)17‐yCry compounds via a magnetoelastic strategy. Variable‐temperature synchrotron X‐ray diffraction reveals that increased Fe content induces switchable lattice responses. Compositional control reduces the volume expansion coefficient αV by 20% (x═0.7) and modulates TC (442–625 K),

EFFECT OF POST-DEFORMATION ANNEALING TREATMENT ON INTERFACE PROPERTIES AND SHEAR BOND STRENGTH OF Al-Cu BIMETALLIC RODS PRODUCED BY EQUAL CHANNEL ANGULAR PRESSING

Iranian Journal of Materials Science and Engineering, 2017
Effects of annealing treatment after equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) on the interface properties and shear bond strength of Al/Cu bimetallic rods were investigated. For the as-deformed samples, the one with two passes of ECAP indicated higher shear
