Non‐Equilibrium Synthesis Methods to Create Metastable and High‐Entropy Nanomaterials
ABSTRACT Stabilizing multiple elements within a single phase enables the creation of advanced materials with exceptional properties arising from their complex composition. However, under equilibrium conditions, the Hume–Rothery rules impose strict limitations on solid‐state miscibility, restricting combinations of elements with mismatched crystal ...

Near-Infrared Spatial Self-Phase Modulation in Ultrathin Niobium Carbide Nanosheets
Spatial self-phase modulation (SSPM) as a purely coherent non-linear optical effect (also known as Kerr effect) can support strong broadband phase modulation, which is essential for all-optical applications.

On the Vacuum Reduction of Niobium Pentoxide with Niobium Carbide
Using the vacuum process, carbide reduction of niobium pentoxide due to the following reaction was investigated experimentally: Nb/sub 2/O/sub 5/ + 5 NbC = 7 Nb + 5 CO. The mixing ratio of Nb/sub 2/O/sub 5//NbC was varied from 33/67 to 45/55. By means of fluctuation measurements of pressure and temt the reaction began to proceed rapidly above 1700 un ...

Lattice Carbon‐Mediated Ultralow‐Barrier C–C Coupling for Selective CO Electroreduction to Ethylene
Combined DFT and molecular dynamics simulations reveal that while the lattice carbon at the MXene edge cannot directly bind CO2 to form ethylene, it acts as an active center to promote C─C coupling between adjacent *CO intermediates for ethylene production.

Friction characteristics of graphite and graphite-metal combinations at various temperatures [PDF]
Characteristics of the coefficient of friction of graphite and of graphitic combinations between 70 and 4000 degrees F are given. Graphite's good frictional quality is attributed to a gas film on surface platelets. Major factors investigated are, surface

Environmental Stability and Electronic Properties of Individual Flakes of Ti2CTx MXene
The paper presents a synthesis of large Ti2CTx MXene flakes with sizes reaching 40 µm and examines their environmental stability and electronic behavior. It demonstrates that monolayer flakes degrade rapidly in ambient conditions, leading to semiconducting‐like behavior with low conductivity and mobility. In contrast, multilayer flakes exhibit enhanced
