A setup for fielding high‐pressure samples contained in diamond anvil cells (DACs) at the LCLS X‐ray free electron laser is described and example powder X‐ray diffraction data are presented. Future prospects for experimental capabilities in DACs enabled by the LCLS, such as short pulse laser interactions and multiple pulse modes, are discussed.A novel ...

Effect of Composition on Grain‐Boundary Chemistry and Fracture Behavior in High‐Entropy Carbides
ABSTRACT High‐entropy carbides (HECs) are often treated as a single material class defined by configurational entropy; however, their properties are governed by composition‐specific defects and grain‐boundary chemistry. This study demonstrates that substituting a single element can qualitatively change grain‐boundary structure and fracture behavior in ...

Charge states and distribution of iron ions in polycrystalline cubic boron nitride
Abstract The local electronic states and distribution of 57 Fe ions in cubic boron nitride (c-BN) polycrystals as a function of technological processing were investigated. The study has been performed on c-BN samples prepared by catalytic synthesis and by direct phase transformation.

Electrical Conductivities of Conductors, Semiconductors, and Their Mixtures at Elevated Temperatures
This article presents a comprehensive review of temperature‐dependent electrical conductivity data for multiple material classes at elevated temperatures, highlighting a persistent conductivity gap between metals and semiconductors in the range of 102$\left(10\right)^{2}$– 107$\left(10\right)^{7}$ S/m. Metal–ceramic irregular metamaterials are proposed
