Polar Layered Intermetallic LaCo2P2 as a Water Oxidation Electrocatalyst [PDF]

open access: yesACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2022
We investigate LaCo2P2 as an electrocatalytic material for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) under alkaline and acidic conditions. This layered intermetallic material was prepared via Sn-flux high-temperature annealing. The electrocatalytic ink, prepared with the ball-milled LaCo2P2 catalyst at the mass loading of 0.25 mg/cm2, shows OER activity at pH ...

Lu5Pd4Ge8 and Lu3Pd4Ge4: Two More Germanides among Polar Intermetallics [PDF]

open access: yesCrystals, 2018
In this study, two novel Lu5Pd4Ge8 and Lu3Pd4Ge4 polar intermetallics were prepared by direct synthesis of pure constituents. Their crystal structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis: Lu5Pd4Ge8 is monoclinic, P21/m, mP34, a = 5.7406(3), b = 13.7087(7), c = 8.3423(4) Å, β = 107.8(1), Z = 2; Lu3Pd4Ge4 is orthorhombic, Immm ...

High electrical conductivity in the epitaxial polar metals LaAuGe and LaPtSb

open access: yesAPL Materials, 2019
Polar metals are an intriguing class of materials that simultaneously host free carriers and polar structural distortions. Despite the name “polar metal,” however, most well-studied polar metals are poor electrical conductors.
