Charge disproportionation in RNiO3 perovskites (R=rare earth) from high-resolution x-ray absorption spectroscopy

Marco Grioni, Joël Mesot, François Vernay

High-resolution x-ray absorption measurements reveal a rare-earth-dependent splitting of the Ni K edge in the insulating, charge-disproportionated state of the whole RNiO3 perovskite family. The splitting is five times larger for LuNiO3 [2.5(1) eV] than fo ...

On the lattice coherency of oxide particles dispersed in EUROFER97

Nadine Baluc, Robin Schäublin, Amuthan Ramar

Oxide dispersion strengthened steels based on the ferritic/martensitic steel EUROFER97 are developed. The reinforcing particles dispersed in the matrix of EUROFER97 are made of yttria and yttrium titanium oxides. Microstructure is investigated by transmiss ...

Homo- and Heterodinuclear Helicates of Lanthanide(III), Zinc(II) and Aluminium(III) Based on 8-Hydroxyquinoline Ligands

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Frédéric Gumy

Homonuclear helicates with rare-earth-metal(III) ions or heteronuclear derivatives with rare-earth-metal and aluminium or zinc centres are obtained in alkali-metal-templated selfassembly processes from isobutenylidene- bridged homoditopic bis(2-carb-Gamido ...
