The optical and electronic properties of the rare earth hexaborides RB 6 (R= La, Ce, Pr, Nd,
Sm, Eu, Gd) are studied using the full potential linearized augmented plane wave method …

The discovery of Heusler alloys has revolutionized the research field of intermetallics due to
the ease with which one can derive potential candidates for multifunctional applications …

YPdBi is a well-studied diamagnetic topologically trivial half-Heusler alloy that is
superconducting with T c∼ 1 K. When strained or in thin-film form, it shows a topologically …

We present detailed ab initio calculations of the magnetic hyperfine field (Bhf) and electric
field gradient (EFG) of a dilute Cd impurity in heavy rare-earth (RE) metals (Gd to Lu) using …

In this work, a thorough study of the band structure and optical properties of α, β and ω
phases of Titanium are presented using the full potential augmented plane wave plus local …

The optical constants n and k of lutetium (Lu) films were obtained in the 3–1800 eV range
from transmittance measurements performed at room temperature. These are the first …

The rare earth‐based half Heusler GdNiSb compound is investigated theoretically for
electronic and thermoelectric (TE) performance. The most efficient method to treat the rare …

In this study, recovered phosphor from end of life three-wavelength fluorescent lamp was
selected for reuse rare earth elements in the phosphor. The effect of a type of acid …
