Memristors Based on (Zr, Hf, Nb, Ta, Mo, W) High?Entropy Oxides

Influence of boron vacancies on phase stability, bonding and structure of MB₂ (M  =  Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W) with AlB₂ type structure.

Transition metal diborides in hexagonal AlB2 type structure typically form stable MB2 phases for group IV elements (M  =  Ti, Zr, Hf). For group V (M  =  V, Nb, Ta) and group VI (M  =  Cr, Mo, W) the stability is reduced and an alternative hexagonal rhombohedral MB2 structure becomes more stable. In this work we investigate the effect of vacancies on the B-site in hexagonal MB2 and its influenc...

Seebeck coefficient measurements on Li, Sn, Ta, Mo, and W

The thermopower of W, Mo, Ta, Li and Sn has been measured relative to stainless steel, and the Seebeck coefficient of each of these materials has then been calculated. These are materials that are currently relevant to fusion research and form the backbone for different possibl e liquid limiter concepts includ ing TEMHD concepts such as LiMIT. For molybdenum the Seebeck coefficient has a linear...

Effect of electron count and chemical complexity in the Ta-Nb-Hf-Zr-Ti high-entropy alloy superconductor.

High-entropy alloys are made from random mixtures of principal elements on simple lattices, stabilized by a high mixing entropy. The recently discovered body-centered cubic (BCC) Ta-Nb-Hf-Zr-Ti high-entropy alloy superconductor appears to display properties of both simple crystalline intermetallics and amorphous materials; e.g., it has a well-defined superconducting transition along with an exc...

ANION EXCHANGE BEHAVIOR OF Ti, Zr, Hf, Nb AND Ta AS HOMOLOGUES OF Rf AND Db IN MIXED HF-ACETONE SOLUTIONS

Predictions of the Pt(8)Ti phase in unexpected systems.

The binary A(8)B phase (prototype Pt(8)Ti) has been experimentally observed in 11 systems. A high-throughput search over all the binary transition intermetallics, however, reveals 59 occurrences of the A(8)B phase: Au(8)Zn(dagger), Cd(8)Sc(dagger), Cu(8)Ni(dagger), Cu(8)Zn(dagger), Hg(8)La, Ir(8)Os(dagger), Ir(8)Re, Ir(8)Ru(dagger), Ir(8)Tc, Ir(8)W(dagger), Nb(8)Os(dagger), Nb(8)Rh(dagger), Nb(...
