This is a critical review of MAX-phase carbides and nitrides from an electronic-structure and
chemical bonding perspective. This large group of nanolaminated materials is of great …

This review presents MAX phases (M is a transition metal, A an A-group element, X is C or
N), known for their unique combination of ceramic/metallic properties, as a recently …

The CRC Materials Science and Engineering Handbook, Third Edition is the most
comprehensive source available for data on engineering materials. Organized in an easy-to …

The ternary ceramic MAX and recently emerging MAB phases have exhibited a combination
of properties of metals and ceramics, excellent mechanical properties along with high …

The magnetism of the M n+ 1 AX n phase, Cr 2 GeC, and its Mn-doped system,(Cr 1− x Mn
x) 2 GeC (x≤ 0.25), synthesized via a solid state reaction, was investigated systematically …

Hexagon-like MAX-phase V4AlC3 single crystals grown by a high-temperature flux method
were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy …

The emergence of MAX borides as well as MAB phases attracted great attention because of
the renewable developments of ternary ceramics and offering great opportunities in potential …

Herein we systematically investigated the alloying effects on structural, magnetic, and
electrical/thermal transport properties in MAX-phase Cr 2− x M x GeC (M= Ti, V, Mn, Fe, and …

The growth and phase formation features, along with the influence of structure and
morphology on the electronic, optical, and transport properties of Cr2GeC and Cr2 …

We propose a general, yet simple model for describing the weak field magnetotransport
properties of nearly-free electrons in two-dimensional hexagonal metals. We modify this …
