Forcing Sr2NiO2Cu2Se2 into the low spin regime under pressure
This is a proposal to drive the layered oxide chalcogenide Sr2NiO2Cu2Se2 from the high-spin state with long range magnetic order to the low-spin state, similar to that displayed... -
Quantitative determination of the phase distribution of an iron tool from a B...
We propose to measure a fragment of a tool, coming from a Bronze Age burial ground of southern Tuscany, which seems to be forged of iron but does not fit with the attributed age. -
Technological study of ancient byzantine 12 Nummi coins Part II
Byzantine bronze coins (6th cent. AD) minted in Alexandria, and now in the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna, are studied with focus on technological aspects. For the leaded... -
Pressure driven phase transitions in the magnetically frustrated layered mate...
Frustration occurs in materials where antiferromagnetic (spin up and spin down pairs) are incomparible with the underlying crystal morphology, for example where the connectivity... -
Pressure Tuning of a Sodium Battery Material
The most important scientific problems to solve for the future is how to efficiently convert and store clean energy. To realize all-solid-state devices and high-performance... -
