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 ...
Silicon nitride based ceramics (SiAlONs); tetragonal polycrystalline zirconia (3Y‐TZP); alumina and their composites reinforced with different amount of multi‐ walled carbon‐nanotubes (CNTs) have been processed by Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS). High tempera ...
Model materials are precious test cases for elementary theories and provide building blocks for the understanding of more complex cases. Here, we describe the lattice dynamics of the structural phase transition in francisite Cu3Bi(SeO3)(2)O2Cl at 115 K and ...
The work presented in this thesis covers two different topics of surface science, both investigated with the scanning tunneling miscroscopy and spectroscopy at low temperatures (5~K). First, we are interested in the spectroscopic properties of physisorbed ...
The atomistic mechanisms of deformation in multicomponent random alloys are challenging to model because of their extensive structural and compositional disorder. For embedded-atom-method interatomic potentials, a formal averaging procedure can generate an ...
The anatase phase of TiO2 is a key material in the third generation of photovoltaics and for photo-catalytic devices. The number of promising applications, where one would profit from the electronic degrees of freedom of the material, like in memristors, s ...
The dynamics and bonding of the complex hydrides LiBH4 and LiAlH4 have been investigated by vibrational spectroscopy. The combination of infrared, Raman, and inelastic neutron scattering (INS) spectroscopies on hydrided and deuterided samples reveals a com ...
We report electron spin resonance (ESR), Raman scattering, and interband absorption measurements of the multiferroic FeTe2O5Br with two successive magnetic transitions at T-N1 = 11.0 K and T-N2 = 10.5 K. ESR measurements show all characteristics of a low-d ...
Symmetry breaking across phase transitions often causes changes in selection rules and emergence of optical modes which can be detected via spectroscopic techniques or generated coherently in pump-probe experiments. In second-order or weakly first-order tr ...
A fundamental understanding of the quench phenomenon is particularly important in the design and operation of magnets using High Temperature Superconductors because the quench propagation velocity is low due to high specific heat at high temperature. We ha ...
