Ferroelectric perovskites exhibit superior dielectric, piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties. Architecting ferroelectrics in the small scale holds interest in both application and fundamental research. Compared to their 2D counterparts – thin films, f ...
We study the phase diagram of an effective ion model of fully ionized hydrogen at ultra-high pressure. We assume that the protons interact with a screened Coulomb potential derived from a static linear response theory. This model accurately reproduces the ...
Strain response of polycrystalline barium titanate (BaTiO3) was investigated under high unipolar electric field (0 to 4 kV/mm) and compressive stress (0 to 400 MPa) in the temperature range from 25 to 160 degrees C. In the vicinity of the Curie point (T-C) ...
The macroscopic properties of ferroelectric materials depend directly on the domain configuration and the structure of the domain boundaries. For this reason, their study is of great scientific and technological interest. Several models have been developed ...
Tungsten alloys are candidate materials for DEMO divertor applications because of their high melting point and low sputtering yield. We explore, using ab initio methods, the phase stability trend of W-Ta and W-V alloys. The available experimental phase dia ...

Isothermal mechanical spectroscopy by means of a forced torsion pendulum (measuring internal friction/mechanical loss) was used to study the interplay of long-range atomic order and stress-induced diffusion (Zener relaxation) in Au57%Cu43%. Our results sho ...
Atomic ordering and stress-induced ordering (Zener relaxation) were studied in a series of 18-carat (75 wt%) yellow gold alloys (Au-Cu-Ag) by means of isothermal mechanical spectroscopy with a forced torsion pendulum at low frequencies. In the high-tempera ...
A combined synchrotron X-ray diffraction, Raman scattering, and infrared spectroscopy study of the pressure-induced changes in H3BO3 to 10 GPa revealed a new high-pressure phase transition between 1 and 2 GPa followed by chemical decomposition into cubic H ...
A Multicomponent Aerosol Dynamics Model (MADM) capable of solving the condensation/evaporation equation of atmospheric aerosols is presented. Condensable species may be organic and/or inorganic. For the inorganic constituents the equilibrium model ISORROPI ...
