چکیده

A solution chemistry synthetic route yields Cs(3)C(60) with a face-centred cubic structure. The described method uses well-established Schlenk techniques and THF as a solvent. The controlled addition of an organo-metallic salt reducing agent prevents the formation of C(60)(4-) salts. The final product can be precipitated from the solution using hexane as an anti-solvent.

Synthesis and Morphology of Face Centered Cubic (FCC) Fe-Pt Nanoparticles

FePt nanoparticles with thermally stable room-temperature ferromagnetism are investigated. The monodisperse nanoparticles are prepared by chemical synthesis and a salt-matrix annealing technique. Structural and magnetic characterizations confirm the phase transition from the disordered face-centered cubic structure. In this paper, 3 nm FePt nanoparticles are first synthesized by superhydride re...

Deformation-induced structural transition in body-centred cubic molybdenum

Molybdenum is a refractory metal that is stable in a body-centred cubic structure at all temperatures before melting. Plastic deformation via structural transitions has never been reported for pure molybdenum, while transformation coupled with plasticity is well known for many alloys and ceramics. Here we demonstrate a structural transformation accompanied by shear deformation from an original ...

Size and symmetry of the superconducting gap in the f.c.c. Cs3C60 polymorph close to the metal-Mott insulator boundary

The alkali fullerides, A(3)C(60) (A = alkali metal) are molecular superconductors that undergo a transition to a magnetic Mott-insulating state at large lattice parameters. However, although the size and the symmetry of the superconducting gap, Δ, are both crucial for the understanding of the pairing mechanism, they are currently unknown for superconducting fullerides close to the correlation-d...

Optimality of general lattice transformations with applications to the Bain strain in steel.

This article provides a rigorous proof of a conjecture by E. C. Bain in 1924 on the optimality of the so-called Bain strain based on a criterion of least atomic movement. A general framework that explores several such optimality criteria is introduced and employed to show the existence of optimal transformations between any two Bravais lattices. A precise algorithm and a graphical user interfac...
