Single Crystal Growth, Structure, and Electronic Properties of Metallic Delafossite PdRhO2
We report growth of single crystals of the nonmagnetic metallic delafossite PdRhO2, comparing the results from three different methods. Complete crystallographic data were obtained from single crystal X-ray diffraction, and electronic structure calculation ...
2017In-situ Laue diffraction to follow dislocation patterning during fatigue
The macroscopic strength of metals is determined by the dislocation arrangements that are formed when dislocations slip in the crystal lattice in response to the applied stress. Despite the extensive research carried out, the transition from uniform to non ...
EPFL2016Atomistic simulation of the absorption of calcium and hydroxyl ions onto portlandite surfaces - towards crystal growth mechanisms
Paul Bowen, Sandra Caroline Galmarini
Portlandite is an important constituent of cementitious materials. Consequently the growth of portlandite is of great interest to fully understand the hydration of cement, a process still posing many scientific challenges. In this paper the growth of portl ...
Elsevier2016Short magmatic residence times of quartz phenocrysts in Patagonian rhyolites associated with Gondwana breakup
Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Lukas Baumgartner, Susanne Seitz
A key parameter in the study of magma evolution is the time scale on which magmatic processes occur. Using nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS), SIMS, and cathodoluminescence (CL) analyses, we have measured titanium (Ti) diffusion profiles ...
Geological Society of America2016Crystallization of undercooled liquid fenofibrate
Formulation of hydrophobic drugs as amorphous materials is highly advantageous as this increases their solubility in water and therefore their bioavailability. However, many drugs have a high propensity to crystallize during production and storage, limitin ...
Royal Society of Chemistry2015Quantifying sensitivities of ice crystal number and sources of ice crystal number variability in CAM 5.1 using the adjoint of a physically based cirrus formation parameterization
We present the adjoint of a cirrus formation parameterization that computes the sensitivity of ice crystal number concentration to updraft velocity, aerosol, and ice deposition coefficient. The adjoint is driven by simulations from the National Center for ...
Wiley-Blackwell2015Synthesis, crystal growth and physical properties of the frustrated spin ladder material BiCu2PO6
In recent years quantum antiferromagnets with an intrinsically disordered (“spin liquid”) ground state and an energy gap in the spin excitation spectrum have received a great deal of attention. In search for new experimental realizations of spin-ladder and ...
EPFL2013Low temperature crystallisation of mesoporous TiO2
Morgan Mertens Stefik, Stefan Guldin
Conducting mesoporous TiO2 is rapidly gaining importance for green energy applications. To optimise performance, its porosity and crystallinity must be carefully fine-tuned. To this end, we have performed a detailed study on the temperature dependence of T ...
Royal Soc Chemistry2013Powder crystallography of pharmaceutical materials by combined crystal structure prediction and solid-state H-1 NMR spectroscopy
A protocol for the ab initio crystal structure determination of powdered solids at natural isotopic abundance by combining solid-state NMR spectroscopy, crystal structure prediction, and DFT chemical shift calculations was evaluated to determine the crysta ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2013Kinetic modelling of batch slurry reactions
Slurries are widely used in important chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. In this presentation we report chemical monitoring and modeling of batch slurry reactions using optical and calorimetric measurement where key analytes are present i ...
