Pressure-freezing of dodecane: exploring the crystal structures, formation kinetics and phase diagrams for colossal barocaloric effects in n-alkanes

Barocaloric (BC) materials provide cheaper and more energy efficient alternatives to traditional refrigerants. Some liquid alkanes were recently shown to exhibit a colossal BC effect, matching the entropy changes in commercial vapour-liquid refrigerants. D ...

Self-compensation due to point defects in Mg-doped GaN

Alfredo Pasquarello, Giacomo Francesco Leonardo Miceli

Using hybrid density functional theory, we address point defects susceptible to cause charge compensation upon Mg doping of GaN. We determine the free energy of formation of the nitrogen vacancy and of several Mg-related defects. The entropic contribution ...

Optimization of Embedded Atom Method Interatomic Potentials to Simulate Defect Structures and Magnetism in [alpha]-Fe

Samuele Chiesa

Magnetism is largely responsible for the body centered cubic to face centered cubic structural phase transition occurring in iron at 1185 K and to many anomalies in the vicinity of the ferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase transition at 1043 K, as for instan ...

Experimental and theoretical investigations of the thermodynamic stability of Ba-C-60 and K-C-60 compound clusters

Klaus Kern

A novel experimental set-up was used to study superstable (magic) Ba-C-60 and K-C-60 compound clusters. The most stable systems observed cannot be rationalized by simple electronic or by geometrical shell filling arguments. Annealing the clusters past the ...

Microbial growth by a net heat up-take: a calorimetric and thermodynamic study on acetotrophic methanogenesis by Methanosarcina barkeri

Urs von Stockar, Ian William Marison

To answer the intriguing question whether or not endothermic microbial growth exists, and in particular, to verify Heijnen and van Dijken's prediction (1992), acetotrophic methanogen, Methanosarcina barkeri, has been cultivated in a highly sensitive bench- ...
