Hard x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES) is establishing itself as an essential
technique for the characterisation of materials. The number of specialised photoelectron …

The discovery of ferroelectricity in polycrystalline thin films of doped HfO2 has reignited the
expectations of developing competitive ferroelectric non-volatile memory devices. To date, it …

The active chemical state of zinc (Zn) in a zinc-copper (Zn-Cu) catalyst during carbon
dioxide/carbon monoxide (CO2/CO) hydrogenation has been debated to be Zn oxide (ZnO) …

In this topical review we catagorise all ambient pressure x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
publications that have appeared between the 1970s and the end of 2018 according to their …

While the conductance of a first-order memristor is defined entirely by the external stimuli, in
the second-order memristor it is governed by the both the external stimuli and its instant …

How and why the reliability of ferroelectric HfO2‐and HZO (Hf0. 5Zr0. 5O2)‐based memory
devices strongly depends on the choice of electrode materials is currently under intense …

We present a new high-pressure x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy system dedicated to
probing catalytic reactions under realistic conditions at pressures of multiple bars. The …

The research in MAX phases is mainly concentrated on the investigation of carbides rather
than nitrides (currently> 150 carbides and only< 15 nitrides) that are predominantly …

Using inelastic X-ray scattering beyond the dipole limit and hard X-ray photoelectron
spectroscopy we establish the dual nature of the U 5 f electrons in UM 2 S i 2 (M= Pd, Ni, Ru …

Composite multiferroics containing ferroelectric and ferromagnetic components often have
much larger magnetoelectric coupling compared to their single-phase counterparts. Doped …
