Two new amide chloride phases, with approximate stoichiometries Li7(NH2)6Cl and Li6Mg0.5(NH2)6Cl, have been identified by powder X-ray diffraction, and their hydrogen storage properties studied. Both phases released hydrogen on reaction with LiH at a lower temperature than observed for lithium amide, and ammonia relea…

We study the linear and nonlinear acoustic response of SrTiO3 across its ferroelastic transition at Ta=105 K by time domain Brillouin scattering. Above Ta we observe that for a strain amplitude of ∼0.18% the sound velocity for compressive strain exceeds the tensile strain velocity by 3%. Below Ta we find a giant slowi…

Rice husk is a potential source for renewable energy and silica. To extract the maximum amount of silica, usually the rice husk is treated with strong acids that burn the organic part leaving behind a black residue. In this research, sulfuric acid is used as an oxidizing agent. Efforts are focused to find out more abo…

In this study, complex optical parameters such as absorption, extinction coefficient, refractive index, optical conductivity and real and imaginary dielectric constants of V2O5–P2O5–B2O3–Dy2O3 glass systems were studied. The conformation of the glassy phase in a sample was accomplished by X-ray diffraction analysis, a…

We report the growth of multi-walled carbon nanotube forests employing an active-active bimetallic Fe-Co catalyst. Using this catalyst system, we observe a synergistic effect by which—in comparison to pure Fe or Co—the height of the forests increases significantly. The homogeneity in the as-grown nanotubes is also imp…

A 'powder-poling' technique was developed to study electric field induced structural transformations in ferroelectrics exhibiting a morphotropic phase boundary (MPB). The technique was employed on soft PZT exhibiting a large longitudinal piezoelectric response (d(33) ∼ 650 pC N(-1)). It was found that electric poling…

Highly cation-ordered (100) and (110)-oriented PbSc0.5Ta0.5O3 (PST) films were deposited on buffered Si (100) substrates using pulsed laser deposition. Switching of crystal orientation from (100) to (110) was achieved by replacing the Si (100)/ZrO2:Y2O3 (100)/CeO2 (100)/LaNiO3 (100)/PST (100) heterostructure with Si (…

Among the widely studied superconducting iron-pnictide compounds belonging to the Ln1111 family (with Ln a lanthanide), a systematic investigation of the crossover region between the superconducting and the antiferromagnetic phase for the Ln = Nd case has been missing. We fill this gap by focusing on the intermediate…
