The possibility to attain ferromagnetic properties in transparent semiconductor oxides such
as ZnO is very promising for future spintronic applications. We demonstrate in this review …

Different batches of Ti 3 C 2 O x F x MXene were prepared, and their stability in air and
argon was studied. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron …

Lonsdaleite, also called hexagonal diamond, has been widely used as a marker of
asteroidal impacts. It is thought to play a central role during the graphite-to-diamond …

In order to elucidate room-temperature (RT) ferromagnetism (FM) in ZnO, we have analyzed
a multitude of experimental publications with respect to the ratio of grain-boundary (GB) area …

Amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) is a precursor of crystalline calcium carbonates that
plays a key role in biomineralization and polymorph evolution. Here, we show that several …

Single crystal and textured polycrystalline γ-Al 2 O 3 thin films were synthesized by oxidation
of NiAl (110) in air at 850° C for 1 and 2 h, respectively, and used to evaluate the accuracy of …

HIPIMS (High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering) discharge is a new PVD technology for
the deposition of high-quality thin films. The deposition flux contains a high degree of metal …

The ionic conductivity of the Li 2 S–P 2 S 5 glass electrolyte systems strongly depends on
the type of precipitated crystalline phases and heat-treatment conditions. To clarify the …

Silica has many industrial (ie, glass formers) and scientific applications. The understanding
and prediction of the interesting properties of such materials are dependent on the …

All-solid-state Li–S batteries with sulfur-based cathodes have attracted attention, because of
their high theoretical energy density. However, it is difficult to transfer electrons and ions and …
