High electrical conductivity in the epitaxial polar metals LaAuGe and LaPtSb
APL 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.

Corrosion inhibition of 2024 aluminium alloy by sodium decanoate [PDF]
, 2010 The present study concerns the corrosion protection of the aluminium alloy (AA) 2024 by sodium decanoate (a long-carbon-chain carboxylate). This compound-type is known to form hydrophobic films on the metal surface. The characterization of the inhibition

Electrochemical Behavior of Magnetron-Sputtered Al–Cu Alloy Films in Sulfate Solutions [PDF]
, 2007 Model alloys, generated by magnetron sputtering, have been employed to understand the role of copper on the corrosion behavior of aluminum alloys. Binary Al–Cu alloys, with copper contents between 0 and 100 atom %, were synthesized with well-controlled ...

Tunability of the spin reorientation transitions with pressure in NdCo5 [PDF]
, 2020 We present pressure-dependent magnetization measurements carried out in the domain of the spin reorientation transitions (SRTs) of a NdCo5 single crystal. The application of a hydrostatic pressure leads to a shift in the SRTs to higher temperatures. This

Galvanic corrosion of aluminium–copper model alloys [PDF]
, 2007 Galvanic coupling between different α and θ phase-containing model Al–Cu alloys, deposited by magnetron sputtering, has revealed that the anodic α phase did not suffer corrosion and remained in the passive state in sulphate solution. Conversely, sulphate
