Disorder‐Driven Fast Na+ Transport: From Crystalline to Amorphous Networks in the Mixed‐Anion NaTaOxCl6−2x Oxychlorides

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Oxygen substitution in NaTaOxCl6‐2x drives structural evolution from isolated [TaCl6]– octahedra, through oxygen‐bridged [Ta2OCl10]2– dimers, toward extended trans‐[TaO2Cl4]3– chain‐like arrangements. At intermediate compositions, zero‐dimensional corner‐sharing motifs are proposed to create a flexible, disordered framework that peaks ionic ...

Fundamental Neutron Physics at Spallation Sources

Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2022
Low-energy neutrons have been a useful probe in fundamental physics studies for more than 70 years. With advances in accelerator technology, many new sources are spallation based. These new, high-flux facilities are becoming the sites for many next-generation fundamental neutron physics experiments.

Boosting the Photoluminescence of Au@Cu12 Nanoclusters via Strategic Fluorine‐Atom Ligand‐Shell Engineering

Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
The photophysical performance of gold‐doped copper‐rich nanoclusters can be tuned by surface functionalization. Subtle ligand modification enhances intermolecular interactions, thereby reducing nonradiative decay and markedly improving photoluminescence. Comparative photographs and quantum yield values (Φ = 55% vs.

A high-resolution neutron diffraction and electron diffraction study of the structure and phase transitions in AgTaO3

APL Materials
The high temperature phase transition behavior of the quantum paraelectric material, AgTaO3, has previously been debated in the literature. To elucidate the phase transitions of AgTaO3, we used neutron powder diffraction and established the phase ...

COHERENT at the Spallation Neutron Source

Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2023
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory provides an intense, high-quality source of neutrinos from pion decay at rest. This source was recently used for the first measurements of coherent elastic neutrino–nucleus scattering (CEvNS) by the COHERENT Collaboration, which resulted in new constraints of physics beyond the ...

Boron‐10 carriers and their applications in boron neutron capture therapy

Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Summary of different types of boron drugs. Abstract Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) has emerged as a promising therapeutic modality in cancer treatment, demonstrating the ability to selectively eliminate cancer cells through the 10B(n,α)7Li nuclear reaction with minimal side effects on normal tissues.

Quantitative neutron characterization of dislocation-nanoprecipitate synergistic strengthening in additively manufactured FeCoNiAlTi high-entropy alloy with ultrahigh yield strength

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
Introducing dislocations and nanoprecipitates is an effective strategy to strengthen alloys, but reliable bulk quantification of dislocation density and coherent nanoprecipitate content remains challenging.

Qualitative Evaluation of the Magnetocrystalline Anisotropy in Spinel Ferrite Nanoparticles Using Polarized Neutron Powder Diffraction

Small, EarlyView.
Polarized neutron powder diffraction is used to qualitatively probe the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of cobalt‐doped ferrite nanoparticles. The analysis of local magnetic susceptibility tensors and magnetization ellipsoids reveals how cobalt incorporation modifies both the magnitude and orientation of anisotropy, providing a new approach to compare ...

Approximate resolution convolution function for fitting a dispersion gap measured on a triple‐axis spectrometer

Journal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
An analytical convoluted gap function is presented for fitting either a linear or a quadratic dispersion gap in a constant‐Q cut measured with a focused triple‐axis spectrometer. It outperforms previous methods of fitting a gap, without requiring a full resolution convolution.We present an analytical convoluted gap function for fitting dispersion gaps ...
